She has killed the god of the sharks in order to free herself, but now, with her beloved children joining the ranks of the missing, she must fight to restore that which she had most wanted to slay . . .

She escaped slavery. But freedom will be more difficult than she can imagine. As the runt of her litter Mitalla—a member of a feline species—has always survived through her cunning. It was through cunning that she escaped a brutal slave camp alive, even after all her siblings perished. Now, she dreams of building a free life in a new city where she can put her past behind her.

With no safe place to hide, she ends up working as a thief for the dark mage Sebastian, who has illegal feline slaves of his own: a mother and her young daughter who become her new friends.
