Sacred Ruse

By Emma K. C. Couette

Some say the assassins have disappeared, but Quinn knows better than to believe that.

Haven City is a warzone. The streets are burning, paranoia is rampant, and death is more prominent than ever. The Resistance has retreated and the Assassin's Guild seems to have faded into nothing, but the war has only just begun.

The Charger will not give up easily, not now that he's gotten into Silent Night's head.

Quinn is ready to leave Silent Night in the past and embrace her future with the Resistance, but not until the Charger pays for the wrongs he's dealt, not until the Guild is dust under her feet.

Victory is easier said than done as unexpected consequences from her previous battles force Quinn to the sidelines once again. Relationships, old and new, test her resolve, and trust seems as out of reach as ever.

As truths unfold and her life spirals out of her control, Quinn will find solace in the notion that she is not the only monster in Haven and will put every effort into ending the Charger, even if it kills her.
