In an outer ring of the Empire, an officer dies when a tree abruptly bursts from his chest. Sent to solve this murder are two Iudex investigators - Ana Dolabra, the enigmatic and genius detective who dissects the mystery based on what her assistant Dinios Kol reports from the scene. As more murders occur and they get closer to the culprit, a far greater conspiracy is revealed - one which indicts the very power structures of the Empire itself. This mystery is brilliantly plotted, in a truly fascinating world of augmentations, massive monsters, and hostile botany. It is a masterwork of fantasy and political intrigue - further proof that Bennett is one of this genre’s most unique and powerful voices. -Jordan
