    Summary

    Crack treated seriously is probably the greatest way to explain this.

    Summary

    “One need not be a Chamber—to be Haunted—

    Material Place—”

    Summary

    Ketterdam is the source of the greatest diseases that destroyed Inej Ghafa's and Kaz Brekker's lives, but it is also where they found miracles within each other.

    Set post Crooked Kingdom and eventually far beyond Rule of Wolves, Inej and Kaz are healing together and learning how to be with one another both emotionally and physically. Their armor is slowly dropping away as they learn to trust and love one another as they deserve.

    Meanwhile, the disease of slavery still festers throughout Ketterdam and the sea beyond. Inej, captain of the Wraith, and Kaz, leader of the increasingly powerful Dregs, must fight to uncover a growing nefarious and dangerous threat crafted from rival gangs, despicable merchers, and a past that aims to destroy them in the name of profit and vengeance.

    Summary

    Jesper says it must be blackmail. Maybe murder. There’s no other way Kaz Brekker could already be holding a full professorship at the University of Ketterdam, no matter how many books he’s written. Inej, trapped by an adjunct’s contract which is the only thing standing between her and deportation, is willing to risk the obvious dangers of his company in exchange for the advantages, professional and otherwise. But when the department’s budget comes up suspiciously short, Inej’s job is on the line, and Kaz isn’t ready to let her go without a fight.
