   Summary

   An original-characters-only story set in the Six of Crows universe.
   Three women fight to survive Ketterdam’s brutal underworld as members of the Widows—a matriarchal gang built on debt, secrets, and the kind of survival that leaves scars.

   Win juggles life as a bartender and a merchant’s mistress, desperate to claw her way out of the Barrel before it swallows her whole.
   Megaera drowns under her father’s debts, chasing freedom through invention, grit, and the hope of avenging her murdered family.
   Clementine, granddaughter of the Widows’ ruthless boss, is forced toward the power she never wanted—until she’s the only one left who can hold the gang together.

   As betrayals mount and the Widows fracture from within, their paths collide in a story about loyalty, ambition, survival, and what it costs to carve a life in a city built to take everything from you.
