Publisher Description
Imperial law enforcer Amaranthe Lokdon is good at her job: she can deter thieves and pacify thugs, if not with a blade, then by toppling an eight-foot pile of coffee canisters onto their heads. But when ravaged bodies show up on the waterfront, an arson covers up human sacrifices, and a powerful business coalition plots to kill the emperor, she feels a tad overwhelmed.
Worse, Sicarius, the empire's most notorious assassin is in town. He's tied in with the chaos somehow, but Amaranthe would be a fool to cross his path. Unfortunately, her superiors order her to hunt him down. Either they have an unprecedented belief in her skills... or someone wants her dead.

Introduction to a steampunk world with a touch of magic.
This is a land where a young king is kept under the influence of drugs and hence the control of his regent. A female member of the Watch, which polices the realm, attracts the king's attention so is sent on a suicidal mission to capture or kill an Assassin. When she instead befriends the Assassin, she is framed and outlawed.
