Synopsis

The Assassin's Code is simple. Never let a job become personal, and never have regrets.

The Nameless Assassin has bent the Code's rules without breaking them for years. But as bodies pile up and alliances crumble, the lines between duty, loyalty, and revenge fade like shadows in the dusk.

With a vengeful blood witch terrorizing the Shambles and the Jakaree priests inching closer to restoring the Dark One to power, Alchester is under siege from all sides. The Warders, sworn to stop the Jakaree at any cost, tighten their grip on the city in pursuit of the elusive Heart of the Dragon-never mind that their crusade may destroy everything they claim to protect.

Caught between fanatical priests, ruthless conspirators, and a blood witch with a score to settle, the Assassin Without a Name must navigate a treacherous landscape where enemies become allies and every decision could lead to tragedy.

In a city seething with dark magic and darker intentions, following the Code means nothing. Breaking it means everything.
