New story - From These Shadows
Zara Uzcal goes by the name of the Spider - the notorious mastermind running Altisir's black market. But when her shipments start disappearing and goods end up in the hands of rival gangs, her business begins collapsing, leaving her bankrupt. Then an unknown figure begins to blackmail her, threatening to reveal her true identity to the city if she doesn't hand over a sum that she no longer has access to.
Zara, the Scourge of Death, Queen of Shadows, is desperate.
Until she receives the opportunity of a lifetime from a secret society that was, until now, nothing but a myth. She will have unimaginable wealth and power if she accomplishes four things in one night:
Break into a fortress
Sabotage a peace treaty
Assassinate a prince
And kidnap a boy with secrets beyond the world's grasp
All to start a war between three great nations.
With another group vying for the same prize, Zara puts together an unlikely group of people, all with their own dark secrets. And as the clock ticks, they will have to learn to trust each other if they want to accomplish this - and survive.
But playing with power comes at a cost. And when myths become reality, the world is never the same.
They are bound together to kill - or die.
Set in a thrilling world inspired by the 18th Ottoman empire.
