    Leigh Bardugo creëert meeslepende fantasyromans, waarbij ze het uitgestrekte Grishaverse opbouwt met zijn ingewikkelde werelden en boeiende personages. Haar verhalen worden gekenmerkt door een onderscheidende stem die duistere magie combineert met diepgaande verkenningen van macht, identiteit en consequenties. Bardugo blinkt uit in het creëren van rijk gedetailleerde mythologieën en moreel complexe protagonisten, en trekt lezers mee in verhalen vol zowel hoge inzetten als diepe emotionele resonantie. Haar vermogen om ingewikkelde plots te verweven met levendige proza bevestigt haar positie als een toonaangevende stem in de hedendaagse fantasy literatuur.

      Kaz en zijn bende hebben een missie volbracht waarvan niemand dacht dat ze hem zouden overleven - ook zijzelf niet. Maar in plaats van de beloofde vette beloning te krijgen, worden de Kraaien dubbel verraden. Ze zullen opnieuw moeten vechten voor hun leven, en met de ontvoering van een belangrijk lid van de bende is dat zwaarder dan ooit. Terwijl Ketterdam vanwege de gevaarlijke drug jurda parem een onweerstaanbare aantrekkingskracht uitoefent op diverse wereldmachten, doen oude rivalen en nieuwe vijanden een beroep op Kaz' sluwheid en wordt de loyaliteit van de groep op de proef gesteld. Er dreigt een oorlog in de nauwe en donkere steegjes van Ketterdam - een gevecht om wraak en vergelding dat het lot van de Grisha-wereld uiteindelijk zal bepalen.
