Heiress of Sun and Blood

Leave no trace. That's the #1 rule of the Assassin's Guild in Quadrania, and 19-year-old Melia Itea knows it well. Too well.

The most lethal member of the Guild, she has a higher body count than all the other members combined. Except for the Commander. Though she's never seen his face, she hates that she has to cater to his every command. But her desire for the bloodshed and retribution of the most evil citizens in Quadrania wins out over the contempt that floods her veins.

But when the Commander tells her that someone has anonymously requested the death of the Winter Solstice King, Melia starts to question everything the Guild stands for - especially when the Commander informs her that a member of the Summer Solstice kingdom - her kingdom - is likely the culprit. As Melia dives deeper into her search for the offender, she begins to uncover conspiracies and plots that lead her to believe she may have had good reasons to hate and fear the Commander all along. And when her brother is given cause to become as bloodthirsty as she is, Melia must decide if she will follow the Commander's orders or let herself fall prey to a greater threat than she could ever have imagined.

Leave no trace.
