From the author of Daughter of the Burning City comes a thrilling new series about the scandalous lives in the City of Sin.

‘Amanda Foody has a wicked imagination.’ Stephanie Garber, Sunday Times bestselling author of Caraval Take a card. The price is your soul.

Welcome to the City of Sin, where casino families reign, gangs infest the streets…and secrets hide in every shadow

Enne Salta was raised as a proper young lady, and no lady would willingly visit New Reynes, the so-called City of Sin. But when her mother goes missing, Enne must leave her finishing school, and her reputation, behind to follow her mother's trail.

Frightened and alone, her only lead is a name: Levi Glaisyer. Unfortunately, Levi is not the gentleman she expected, he's a street lord and con man, but he might just be the only person who can help her.

As their search for clues leads them through glamorous casinos, cabarets and into the clutches of a ruthless society, Enne will need to surrender herself to the city to uncover the truth.

And she'll need to play the game.
