Spring brings warmth, sunshine...and unexpected tragedy, as Chavali loses a hard-won friend under suspicious circumstances. 
Just in time to help her ignore her pain, a new mission to find the agent's killer - and recover his precious cargo - sends her to Harbor City, the jewel of North Cascain. 
A place nearly as insular as Chavali herself. 
Illusions, betrayal, and murder sweep her away from her goal and into a sea of intrigue. Between a disturbing drug, a deadly gang, and mysterious abduction, Chavali finds her hands suddenly full with multiple connected crimes...not to mention the dangers posed by her own personal secrets, demons, and spirits. 
This time, even her sharp wit and clever lies might not be enough to save her...or anyone else in Harbor City.
