The Mischief of Rats

Welcome to Peak, a city of 100 floors. A city of mercenaries and magic. A city of death.

When his family is snatched from him, Lord-General Shard Harken must climb from the dangerous narrow streets of Peak's lower levels. His target: the even deadlier high courts, where powerful opponents hold his children captive in a conspiracy that might alter everything.

Calling on all his battlefield experience, and the help of a handful of friends, he will have to overcome the manipulative guilds, the mysterious Bone Men, and the ruthless Lord Magnus if his son and daughter are to survive.

As Harken's search takes him deep into the city, Magnus and his beloved Veil, the last surviving mystic, prepare the final stages of their life's work. Their extraordinary plan will exact a terrible price.

From the author of the steampunk adventure The Policeman of Secrets, this fantasy thriller features a host of vivid characters thrown together in an imaginative and fully-realized setting. From bold warriors like Harken to the "rats" who make Peak function, each will have a part to play in the life-or-death struggle that unfolds on and between floors.
