    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.

    Summary

    She couldn’t remember if she’d ever told Kaz that it went both ways—that she would always come for him, and if they broke her legs, she’d drag herself inch by inch to his side. She wished she had— but Kaz hated empty promises and pretty lies.

    Because she couldn’t come for him if she didn’t even know where he went or who took him.

    *

    After being held captive for six months, Kaz is barely more than a shadow of the man he used to be. He and Inej must relearn how to navigate both their lives and their relationship.

    Summary

    It sneaks up on her suddenly and without warning, crashing like the tide against shore, ebbs and flows and builds like a raging storm inside her chest until she feels like drowning. Surely she’s losing her mind. Of all the people Inej could possibly want, Kaz Brekker is by far the least expected or ideal choice.

    But for the first time in what must be a lifetime she feels... something that’s been dormant so long she’d thought she’d lost forever. And she’s not sure if she’ll chase that feeling away or let it consume her whole.

    Or: Inej comes to terms with her feelings for one Bastard of the Barrel.

    Summary

    Someone has discovered Kaz's secret. Who are they? What will they do with this information? And at what cost?

    ----------

    Excerpt from chapter 32:

    “You are scared of him.”

    Instead of the surge of retaliative emotion she had expected from such a definitive blow, Inej simply appeared genuinely puzzled, cocking her head slightly to one side. “Scared of who?”

    Him,” the girl spat, as if articulating the most obvious of facts to a simpleton. “When you stood by his side you were afraid. I could... tell.”

    After pausing for a moment in obvious contemplation, she saw realisation wash over Inej’s face. Looking to the floor, the Lady whispered, “Never,” as he shook her head in sombre reverie. “I feel fear for him at times, but never of him. I know that Kaz would never hurt me.”
