This book came across my attention on Tiktok due to the anonymous author’s ingenious marketing strategy.
At first I had low expectations because I didn’t know what to expect.
The story is centred around a female assassin who is half-Fae and therefore in her society, a slave for the Crown. She has been trained to be a deadly assassin, to capture and kill Halflings like herself.
