The Death of Dulgath
Three times they tried to kill her. Then they hired a professional. She hired Riyria.
When the last member of the oldest noble family in Avryn is targeted for assassination, Riyria is hired to foil the plot. Three years have past since the war-weary mercenary Hadrian and a cynical ex-assassin Royce joined forces to start life as thieves-for-hire. Things have gone well enough until they receive the odd assignment to prevent a murder. Now they must venture into a forgotten corner of southern Avryn — a place which predates the empire. As usual, challenges abound as they try to anticipate the moves of an unknown assassin before it’s too late. But that's not their only problem as The Countess of Dulgath hides a dark secret she's determined to remain that way. Then there's the little matter about Riyria's new employer... the Nyphron Church.
From the best-selling author of The Riyria Revelations, comes the third installment of The Riyria Chronicles. While part of a series, this novel can be read and enjoyed by those new to Riyria without fear of spoilers for the other works.
