When criminals unite to defeat evil, even the darkest of enemies can fall…
In the depths of Hell’s Labyrinth, a dangerous alliance is forming. For Vazeer the Lash, his mission to destroy the Raving Blade is no longer simply a quest for survival, but a fierce vendetta that masks a dark obsession.
Vazeer has survived the Narrow Bid, but his life still hangs in the balance. The Raving Blade is sadistic and power-hungry, ready to tear Vazeer’s fragile world apart. If assassinating his enemy is impossible, then Vazeer must consider striking a bargain with him instead – a pact sure to draw him deeper into a world of crime and violence.
Occult conspiracies, double-crossing allies, ex-lovers, and psychotic enemies threaten to plunge Vazeer further into darkness. But can embracing darkness bring him to the light, or will Hell’s Labyrinth swallow him whole?
“A breathtaking installment of an unforgettable fantasy series.”
