Kaz Brekker and Veyra grew up together in the alleys of Ketterdam. United by an unbreakable bond, lovers, accomplices, they become a living legend in the Barrel. Everyone knows them, everyone fears them. She, a ruthless thief gifted with the power of the shadows. He, a brilliant and ruthless mind, formerly known as DirtyHands.
But perfect love crumbles. Veyra discovers Kaz in bed with another woman. She says nothing. She waits, observes. Then, during a robbery gone wrong, she is seriously wounded in the stomach. Amid the blood and chaos, she meets Kaz's gaze. He looks at her... and leaves her there, without turning around.
From that day on, for the Dregs and for everyone, Veyra disappears.
Years later, news of her death arrives, and many years after that, Kaz has become the unstoppable leader of the Barrel. Calculating, cold, always one step ahead. But behind his mask, Veyra's ghost has never stopped haunting him.
When the name of a new criminal begins circulating in the alleys, everything changes. No one knows who he is, no one has ever seen his face.
A name whispered with terror: the Shadow. A figure who moves the darkness like blades, who bends gangs and merchants to his will, who leaves a trail of fear in his wake.
