Murder. Machines. Diabolism. Biosculpting. Tea! Malvia was once an Infernal of the Black Flame gang, a member of the Empire's most despised race serving in one of it's most infamous criminal enterprises. But that's all in the past now. One faked death later, and she's been living the last few years as Katheryn Falsara, a slightly sketchy alchemist operating under the nose of the law.

And business is booming. With the Anglean Empire's nobility constantly scheming against each other, both magic and machine benefiting from her skills, and an ever-expanding kingdom full of rare ingredients, Malvia's been content to sit on the sidelines and make a tidy sum of cash.

However, a rash of poisonings among the noble heirs make her behind-the-scenes role impossible. Elements of a life she wanted to leave behind keep resurfacing, and soon she'll find herself at the center of a web of intrigue. It's either figure out the web or be trapped by it forever.
