A ruthless assassin. A dangerous bargain. A city on the brink of chaos.
When Gwendolyn Goddard-cunning, relentless, and colder than any assassin-wants to make a deal, the Assassin Without a Name knows there's a catch. There always is with her. But with the Black Guard relentlessly hunting him through every shadowed lane in Alchester at her direction, he can't afford to say no. Her price? Kill a rival within the Progressive Society.
But darker forces more dangerous than the Society's power struggles are at work. A fanatical priesthood seeks to restore an ancient darkness to prominence. A secret society pursues its own hidden agenda. And a mysterious schematic, coveted by every faction in Alchester, holds secrets that could reshape the balance of power forever.
Caught between treacherous alliances and enemies on every side, the Assassin Without a Name must rely on his wits, his blades, and the few allies he trusts to survive a conspiracy that runs deeper than any of them imagined.
Perfect for fans of gritty sword and sorcery fantasy, fast-paced action, and morally complex antiheroes, The Assassin's Cunning is a thrilling tale of espionage, betrayal, and the fine line between survival and honor.
