Winter's Ball

On the last night of winter, six strangers enter the famous crown city of Lavus. One morning later, every single noble-man and -woman is dead. Sarina Mithri was twelve when she watched the man with no eyes slit her mother's throat, but she remembers the Killing Night like it was yesterday. For seven years, she has lived in silence with that bloody image in her mind. And to this day she is the only person in the city who has ever seen one of the six Knives and lived to speak of it. Then she sees him again. It's the winter's ball and Sarina, now High Lady of Lavus, is the only person who can keep her people safe from the threat of new assassins—but she is also deeply afraid. Tonight, nobody is safe, for the man with no eyes swears, come morning, everybody in Lavus City will be dead. So if Sarina is to pull off the impossible, she will need to conquer the court, weed out the assassins, and solve the mind-bending mystery behind the Knives' repeating existence. And she only has one night to do it. The beginning of a brand new fantasy series, The Killing Night, where each instalment can be read in one sitting and the mystery will have you reading until its dramatic final moments.
