Description: The Liar's Knot by M.A. Carrick The Liars Knot is the second book in the Rook and Rose trilogy, a commercial, character-driven fantasy adventure, in which a con artist, a vigilante, and a crime lord must unite to save their city, which is slowly being corrupted by dark and dangerous magic. Perfect for readers of V. E. Schwab and Scott Lynch. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Trust is the thread that binds us . . . and the rope that hangs us. In Nadezra, peace is as tenuous as a single thread. The ruthless House Indestor has been destroyed, but darkness still weaves through the citys filthy back alleys and jewel-bright gardens, seen by those who know where to look. Derossi Vargo has always known. He has sacrificed more than anyone imagines to carve himself a position of power among the nobility, hiding a will of steel behind a velvet smile. Hell be damned if he lets anyone threaten what hes built. Grey Serrado knows all too well. Bent under the yoke of too many burdens, he fights to protect the citys most vulnerable. Sooner or later, that fight will demand more than he can give. And Ren, daughter of no clan, knows best of all. Caught in a knot of lies, torn between her heritage and her aristocratic masquerade, she relies on her gift for reading pattern to survive. And it shows her the web of corruption that traps her city. But all three have yet to discover just how far that web stretches. And in the end, it will take more than knives to cut themselves free...The Mask of Mirrors is exactly the fantasy adventure novel youre craving: an escape into a vast, enchanting world of danger, secret identities, and glittering proseTasha Suri, author of The Jasmine ThroneThe Mask of Mirrors kept me up reading way past my bedtime.
