Listeners will delight in this first audiobook in a new fantasy series. This slow-burn, character-driven story follows the lives of several people who are trying to survive the harsh realities of Kithamar, a city with many faces. After suffering a personal tragedy, Alys obsessively pursues answers about who was behind it. Will she push her quest for revenge too far? Narrator Soneela Nankani is a great match for Abraham’s poignant writing. She strikes the perfect balance between infusing personality into the characters while remaining neutral enough to let the author’s beautiful prose shine. Her calm, thoughtful presentation mimics the heads-down, plodding atmosphere of Kithamar’s inhabitants. Through her, the unique vibrancy of the city becomes completely captivating.

From a Hugo award-winningNew York Timesbestselling author comes a "fascinating" epic fantasy trilogy that unfolds within the walls of a single great city where every story matters (Joe Abercrombie)-and the fate of the city is woven from them all.
Kithamar is a center of trade and wealth, an ancient city with a long, bloody history where countless thousands live and their stories unfold.
This is Alys's.
When her brother is murdered, a petty thief from the slums of Longhill sets out to discover who killed him and why. *But the more she discovers about him, the more she learns about herself, and the truths she finds are more dangerous than knives.*
Swept up in an intrigue as deep as the roots of Kithamar, where the secrets of the lowest born can sometimes topple thrones, the story Alys chooses will have the power to change everything.
“An atmospheric and fascinating tapestry, woven with skill and patience.” -Joe Abercrombie, New York Times*bestselling author of A Little Hatred
