From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Mercy Thompson series (Frost Burned, Night Broken) and the Alpha and Omega novels (Fair Game, Dead Heat)

Sham had spent most of her young life as a sorceress and thief, stealing from Southwood’s nobility to survive. Now she must face the greatest test of her skills…

A killer has struck Southwood, claiming the lives of nobles. Lord Kerim, Reeve of Southwood, turns to Sham for help. Posing as his mistress, she delves behind castle walls to find the killer. But this murderer is no mortal—and Sham must use all of her magical wisdom to send the demon away. Because the city of Southwood has nowhere to hide—and no time to run…

A nice addition to the series with an excellent mystery mixed in. It's one of Patricia Brigg's earlier works and it shows in some parts, but it's one of my favorite authors and an excellent book overall.

Great story and storyteller (voice talent)

This book could easily be the best in this series; a stand alone. It is criminal in the way its characters distract, manipulate, and cajole… A total joy to read; I couldn’t put it down for fear of losing something!

Highly recommend for every reader, of all ages!
