From one of the most exciting new voices in fantasy comes the satisfying conclusion to Davinia Evans's wickedly entertaining debut fantasy trilogy full of monstrous creatures, dagger-wielding high society ladies, and a dragon that holds the fate of the most famous alchemist of all in the clutches of her claws.
Siyon Velo has had enough. Monsters of myth have awoken in the Mundane, causing chaos across Bezim and what's more-Bezim should be singing Siyon's praises. But instead, the people have begun to turn against the Alchemist during the time they need him most. Even if they refuse to believe it.
Meanwhile, whispers surrounding the mysterious identity of the Lady Sable, or better known as Anahid Savani, slice through the walls of the Flower District. And though Anahid is a master at laying low, curious eyes come aplenty among the high society ladies she belongs to, and high society secrets can only be kept for so long.
All the while, her sister, Zagiri Savani is making her own introduction to high society... and trying not to implode the city's politics in the process. Together, these unlikely heroes will need to fight fire with fire to save the fate of Bezim once and for all or watch as their city is engulfed in the flames.
