    Summary

    Illario Dellamorte has a lot of sins to atone for- Betraying the crows, Zara Renata, trying to kill Lucanis, and adding on recently, taking Caterina's final contract. All of which Lily could forgive if he'd just learn to say "I'm Sorry". And maybe she would have made the time to teach him if her duties weren't piling up. Arabella is due any day, the crows have more contracts than they know what to do with, and there's extra pressure from the Merchant Princes than there's ever been. Which Lily could have juggled if a ghost from her past, one she doesn't remember, didn't return under a the banner of the 'Blood Moon'. A mysterious pirate ship that never seems to stay in one port long enough to be caught, a myth that has been seen all over Antiva the night before a truly impossible assassination happens. In order to unravel the mystery of who Lily is and how she ties into the pirates plaguing the coast, Illario and she will have to work together. If only Illario could get his mojo back, and stop seeing Zara's face in his marks...if only he could get Lily to forgive him for doing the one job he knew she never could- Putting Caterina Dellamorte to rest. (The Sequel to "The First Talon's Wife")
