Description

**Guns on all sides!**
*Charlotte and Rone are being hunted.*
They flee from the sadistic and power-hungry Count Catannel, who will stop at nothing to see Charlotte, his unwilling wife, returned to him whole.
Rone, a solitary mercenary from a tribe of apostates feared and hated for their ability to use magic, is her only hope for escape, but all she can promise him is riches in some indeterminate future. Those who hunt her are rich and powerful beyond belief.
Reaching the Coast, escape is close at hand, but so are the agents of the enemy. Within the walls of the decadent Masala, the Silver City, murder, theft, and betrayal lurk in every shadow and under every rotten eave. Will Rone’s guile and cleverness be enough to get them out, or will his honor break before then?
**Guns and swords may not be enough to save them…**
