Where Shadows Burn || Kaz Brekker
Ketterdam knows her only as Shadow, a girl cloaked in silence, with fire at her fingertips and secrets in her wake. She moves alone through the city's underworld, selling whispers and slipping through locked doors like smoke. But when a job leads her into a confrontation with Kaz Brekker, the infamous Bastard of the Barrel, her path tangles with the Dregs in ways she never planned. He comes to her again, not with threats, but with business. Rumors of a sun summoner. War stirring across the sea. And a deal only she can broker. But nothing in Ketterdam is free. A slow-burn Grishaverse fanfic set between Shadow and Bone and Six of Crows, weaving shadows, saints, and secrets into a story of survival, power, and the cost of knowing too much.

𝒆𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒓𝒐𝒌𝒆𝒏 - 𝒌𝒂𝒛 𝒃𝒓𝒆𝒌𝒌𝒆𝒓
Ketterdam is a city where shadows stretch long, where loyalty is a currency and betrayal a way of life. In a world ruled by criminals, Kaz Brekker's name is whispered with fear, a legend of ruthless cunning. But Kaz isn't the only one hiding deadly secrets. Ella Volgere walks in the same darkness, a ghost among thieves with a gift that makes her both invaluable and terrifying: the power to see-and twist-the emotions of others. Her ability is a weapon of quiet destruction, and Kaz, who keeps his heart locked away, is no exception to her influence. He denies it, buries it, but Ella knows the truth he can't face. As dangerous heists, betrayals, and revenge spiral around them, the line between ally and enemy blurs. Kaz and Ella tread a precarious path, each step a risk, each choice a cost. And when the unforgivable happens, it is Pekka Rollins who will be the architect of their downfall-his betrayal a price too steep to pay. In a world where trust is a death sentence, and love is a weakness, Kaz Brekker will face the one truth he can't escape: some wounds can never be healed. And some sacrifices, no matter how great, can never be repaid.Complete

There are no saints in Ketterdam. Only the ones you make, and the ones you burn. When Pekka Rollins unleashes his veiled weapon to silence those who cross him, the Barrel begins to whisper of a saint who walks like death itself. Kaz Brekker should know better than to chase ghosts. Yet when Rollins's trap snaps shut, the hunter becomes the bait, and the game turns on something far crueler than coin. Beneath the fog and fire of Third Harbor, two forces move in shadow. One born of vengeance, the other of faith long perverted. And as each step draws them closer, bound by the city's hunger, only one truth will remain: Even the drowned can learn to breathe.
