Description
It takes a special kind of assassin to fumble a hit over 20 times, but then again, Aster Mortem has always been one of a kind. In fact, he was so special that he got away with multiple attempts of regicide, and instead of being beheaded, he was allowed to rot in the coldest cells of Serberos until he figured out where he went wrong…or when his target had finally died.
It takes a special kind of target to escape assassination over 20 times, but Emperor Dominique Sibylla was no one special – not at all.
One death sentence later, the assassin meets the emperor in his second chance at life… 22 assassination attempts apart. Now, it’s a race against time to see if history will repeat itself, or if Aster can kill the emperor before he is even crowned.
“Into the gallows we go.”
