For years, the faceless terror known as the Hand of Fate has been secretly manipulating the port city of Reyza for her shadowy ends. Those she favors rise in status while those who betray her are never heard from again. When the opportunity to eliminate a powerful dynasty presents itself, the Hand of Fate conspires with a sadistic diplomat who shares the king's bed. Together, they hatch a plan to assassinate their rivals. The plan is flawless-every variable calculated-except for one. On the night the Hand of Fate's hired assassin makes his move, a notorious thief is also making his. Jarle Jadien has had it with the gray-haired harpy whom he serves and succumbs to the greatest temptation of all: The Ensther estate is home to the king's betrothed and a fortune in jewels. When the risky heist takes a disastrous turn, Jarle finds himself in possession of a treasure he has no intention of keeping. Avaren Ensther is beauty and intrigue in one, and a keeper of secrets that reach far beyond Jarle's world of whiskey and disrepute.

Within the city walls, a retired war-hero investigates the conspiracy and attempts to uphold justice, but his efforts may not suffice to prevent an all-out war. Too many vengeful plots have festered; too much blood spilled. As the moons reach a cataclysmic alignment, unleashing the terrible force of the tides, neither hero, criminal, nor all-powerful monarch; can escape the tendrils of fate.

No matter what sort of death Harmony has, she can't seem to stay dead. When her consciousness is continually thrust between the living and the afterlife, she gains the attention of Death himself. He offers her a job as one of his Reapers, but soul collecting becomes an after-thought when it feels too much like glorified murder. When she hesitates on her first Reap, it has irreversible consequences and she realizes that the job is a lot harder than she expected. Now, Harmony has to learn the intricate details of becoming a Reaper as she tries to find a balance between life and death. But things take a turn when souls begin to go missing and suspicion falls only to one person. Chaos.
