Ashel is the perfect murdererRaised and brutally conditioned by a death cult, Ashel has been taught that only killing brings her happiness. Her enthusiam for killing, and lack of remose make her an unparalleled assassin. However, when tasked to kill the freshly inherited, gentle and naive Lady Roshia de Relania, a mistake costs Ashel dearly, throwing her upon the mercy of her intended target. When Roshia's kindness does not come with the conditions and prerequisites that she is used to, Ashel is forced to reconsider her place in the world and come to terms with the monstrosity of her past deeds.
As Roshia's many enemies draw close, Ashel must balance her talent for killing against her desire to become something else entirely.
