The Wolf and the Rain (The Wolf and the Rain Book 1)

Description

Samarra is a Protector, climbing the ranks in drought-stricken Seira, when a murder sends her fleeing to the Barrow, a northern city where the only things growing faster than the city’s piles of garbage are extremist cults and violent gangs. With jobs in short supply, Samarra counts herself lucky to find work with the Vauns, one of the Barrow’s most powerful and dangerous families. As she learns to navigate the beauty, the horror, and the magic of the lawless city, she finds herself living in the shadow of a missing woman—the mysterious Raina, who worked for the Vauns before her. When the trail, long thought cold, heats up, Samarra must decide whether her newly gained chance at freedom is worth sacrificing for a ghost.
