A secret affair. A disfiguring punishment. A burning need for revenge. Kyrra d'Aliente has a bad reputation and an arm made of metal. Cast out of the luxurious world of silk to which she was born, played as a pawn in a game of feuding Houses, and blamed for the war that destroyed her family and the man she loves...Kyrra disguises herself as a man and navigates a dangerous world of mercenaries, spies, and smugglers. Only one thing keeps her going: she believes her missing lover is alive, and she will stop at nothing to find him. But when Kyrra is offered the chance to assassinate the man who betrayed her and put the wheels of war in motion, the seductive draw of revenge changes everything. In a world of scheming gods and precarious loyalties, vengeance comes at a deadly cost. Now Kyrra must choose between killing the man who took everything from her...or rescuing the man who gave her back her life. Revenge is finally within her grasp. But is she willing to pay its price? An epic love story set amid the ashes of war and betrayal for fans of Robin Hobb, Guy Gavriel Kay, and Juliet Marillier.
