Set in the world of the His Fair Assassin series, this first in a new duology now has four starred reviews! Death was only the beginning. Sybella has always been the darkest of Death’s daughters, trained at the convent of Saint Mortain to serve as his justice. But in a desperate bid to keep her two youngest sisters from the family that nearly destroyed them all, she agrees to accompany the duchess to France. Surrounded by enemies, their one ray of hope is Sybella’s fellow novitiates, hidden deep in the French court years ago—provided Sybella can find them. Genevieve has been undercover for so many years, she struggles to remember who she is or what she’s meant to be fighting for.
