Rezensionen
"Readers are quickly absorbed into this rich world of magic, murder, and mystery set in the medieval era . . . Fans of high fantasy and mystery will enjoy the lush details, from the buildings to the various characters." -School Library Journal

"Dark thrills for fans of psychology, magick, and murder." -Kirkus Reviews

"Beaty's protagonist is a medieval version of Clarice from The Silence of the Lambs, and she is constantly surrounded by chauvinistic men who underestimate her . . . Readers will appreciate this period piece starring a heroine with uncharted gifts and bravado. An elementary choice of a read." -Booklist

"[A] complex and socially conscious murder mystery set in a Western European-inspired medieval fantasy city that's hiding cataclysmic secrets . . . Beaty thoroughly and deftly examines prejudice against sex workers and people with mental illnesses, combining introspective dialogue, subtle magic, and hair-raising thrills for a riveting, thoughtful read." -Publishers Weekly
