Six of Crows meets Lore Olympus
Sefoni Rience would do anything to save her cousin, the queen, even venturing unchaperoned to the seedy side of town in an attempt to hire Haid Vortinen.
Haid, sometimes known as the Lord of the Dead, is a criminal mastermind, disgraced nobleman, tavern owner, and thief. He agrees to assist Sefoni, but he wants something in return: her hand in marriage.
"Just a sham marriage," he purrs, though the way he looks at her makes her clothes feel too tight. Six months in the criminal underworld, that's all, and then it's over. He needs her at his side to complete his masterwork—the perfect heist.
Six months of sneaking in windows, commandeering carriages, springing strongmen from prison, lying to the nobility, flirting with guards, breaking into safes for gold, and creating diverting distractions.
Six months with Haid.
Just a sham marriage.
The queen's reputation is on the line. Her safety. Maybe her very life. Sefoni can't say no.
But what if, after six months, she doesn't want to leave?
