My name's Nadia, and I do favors for the High Queen Tarlia of the Elves.

Tarlia is not the kind of woman who accepts no for an answer.

So when the High Queen orders me to help a top investigator solve a murder, I have to do it. Even though I've spent most of my life on the run from the law.

I don't like the investigator, and he doesn't like me.

But that doesn't matter, because if we don't work together, the creatures we're hunting will kill us both...
