Description
Petty thief Malinda Castan cares about one thing: saving enough money to leave the Nightingale, a house of cutpurses and unsavory characters, so that she can have a normal life. She lives under one rule: reciprocity—a life for a life, favor for favor. So when the Prince of Darkness saves her from being killed, and offers her one last job that will pay more than she could earn in a lifetime, she says yes not only for the money . . . but because she owes him.
The Prince of Darkness is fire and ice. Cunning, and willing to do whatever it takes, he only wants one thing: the Eternal Slumber, the mask of Death. A prisoner in his own castle, the Prince of Darkness has been learning dark magic as a way to protect himself and his people from the cruelty of their Queen . . . with limited success.
