Lady of Darkness

Scarlett Monrhoe has killed for as long as she can remember. A ruthless Assassin Lord owns her and her two sisters, and together the three are the most feared killers on the continent.

A new contract offers her the thing she has wanted for ten years: the chance to take revenge on the Fae Fire Prince who murdered her mother. She accepts at once, without weighing the cost.

Then children begin to vanish from the city. Scarlett's plan falls apart as the hunt for them draws her back to old allies, a former lover who still carries a grudge, and a newcomer whose knowledge may run deeper than he admits.

This is dark fantasy with an assassin at its centre, and the world around her is crowded with Fae, witches, shifters and vampires. A mystery runs alongside the revenge plot, so questions about the missing children drive the pace.

The secrets Scarlett turns up reach well beyond the kingdom she was raised to serve.
