For Kael, the sound means all three.When the first note rolls through the mist, it doesn't just call him-it claims him. Shadows close ranks, ancient magic stirs, and unseen players in the city's high courts turn their eyes toward the one man they should never have found.In Market of Veiled Truths, every bargain has a hidden cost.

Bells toll in Valaryn for only three reasons: a summons, a warning... or a reckoning. For Kael, the sound means all three.
When the first note rolls through the mist, it doesn't just call him-it claims him. Shadows close ranks, ancient magic stirs, and unseen players in the city's high courts turn their eyes toward the one man they should never have found.
In Market of Veiled Truths, every bargain has a hidden cost. In the Light Court, smiles hide knives and whispers move armies. And beyond the palace walls, a shadow known only as The Fifth begins to weave a game whose stakes reach from the gutter to the throne itself.
Kael isn't the hero of this city. He isn't even sure he wants to save it. But he is bound to it-by secrets older than the bells, by a magic that marks him as both weapon and target, and by a vow he never meant to make. Now, every step he takes pulls him deeper into a web of assassins, cursed relics, and a conspiracy that could shatter more than just Valaryn's walls.
Allies are scarce, and trust is a luxury he can't afford-especially when the man walking beside him, Lucien, has as many masks as the city itself. Their uneasy alliance may be the only thing standing between Valaryn and ruin... or the spark that lights the pyre.
This second book in the [Series Name] series delivers everything readers of the first volume craved-and more:
If you crave dark, immersive fantasy with the knife's edge of danger at every turn-where the line between friend and foe is blurred, and the cost of survival might be your soul-then step into Valaryn.
But be warned. When the bell tolls for you, there's no turning back.
