Humans and elves, dwarves and gnomes, wizards and warriors all live and do business in the thriving, overcrowded port city of Cliff's End, to say nothing of the tourists and travelers who arrive by land and sea, passing through the metropolis on matters of business or pleasure-or on quests. The hard-working, under-appreciated officers of the Cliff's End Castle Guard work day and night to maintain law and order as best they can. As Cliff's End struggles to deal with a massive influx of refugees following a devastating fire in the neighboring city-state of Barlin, the docklands are rocked by a stunning tragedy: the legendary Pirate Queen has been murdered! Long the scourge of the Garamin Sea, the Pirate Queen's death has ripple effects beyond Cliff's End. Even as Lieutenants Danthres Tresyllione and Torin ban Wyvald investigate her murder, they find themselves embroiled in conspiracies, politics, and the arcane law of the sea-and of the land! An all-new adventure of the Cliff's End Castle Guard!

Autorenporträt
Keith R.A. DeCandido was born in what is now the Wakefield campus of Montefiore Hospital in the Bronx. He attended Cardinal Spellman High School and Fordham University, both also in the Bronx, and has lived in the Boogie Down for all but one decade of his life. In 2009 and 2010, he worked for the U.S. Census Bureau, involved in dozens of different operations throughout the Bronx. So writing an urban fantasy series taking place in the northernmost of the five boroughs is a particular thrill.He introduced Bram Gold in the short story "Under the King's Bridge" in the 2011 anthology Liar Liar, and the next book in Bram's series, Feat of Clay, will also be released by eSpec Books. He's told tales of other Coursers in the Systema Paradoxa novella All-the-Way House and in short stories in Bad Ass Moms and Devilish and Divine.His other work includes a long-running series of fantasy police procedurals published by eSpec Books, the latest of which is Phoenix Precinct; a cycle of urban fantasy stories set in Key West, Florida, collected in Ragnarok and Roll and Ragnarok and a Hard Place, both published by Plus One Press; and the new Supernatural Crimes Unit urban fantasy series, forthcoming from Weird Tales Presents. He's also got an extensive résumé of media tie-in fiction, having written novels, short fiction, and comic books in more than thirty licensed universes, from Alien to Zorro, the latest of which includes the Resident Evil comic book Infinite Darkness: The Beginning and short stories in Star Trek Explorer. In 2009, he was given a Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Association of Media Tie-in Writers, which means he never needs to achieve anything ever again.When he's not writing, Keith is an editor (for clients both personal and corporate), a martial artist (he achieved his fourth-degree black belt in karate in 2021, and he regularly teaches karate to kids), an avid New York Yankees fan, and probably some other stuff he can't remember due to the lack of sleep.
