They have unearthed a name: Lord Vissul de Bludridge.

Scion to one of the oldest aristocratic families in the Imperial City of Hostlann, his influence reaches far into the depths of the capital’s court and underworld alike. He owns a bank, commands gangsters, stages lavish parties…

And organizes the assassination of emperors on behalf of a tyrannical god.

Yet from inside of her teashop, the former spymaster of one of those slain emperors seeks vengeance.

Meena Prakanati, a spy of excellence, slinks from the shadows alongside the cryptographer Raga Stonecleaver and their accomplice, the assassin-thief Keeper. Sworn on vengeance for the lord’s crimes, they will plumb the dark for Vissul’s deepest secrets, and when the time is right, strike at the heart of his power…

If they can keep their cover amid their many foes seen and unseen.

Lies, treachery, and explosive action collide in A SPIRITED BLEND, the second book in the SPYCOUNTERKILLER trilogy, brought to you by the award-winning author of Epic Fantasy and Sword & Sorcery epics ATENIA and THIEF OF DESTINY!
