Paved with Good Intentions
An incredible stand-alone epic fantasy from the breakthrough author of PRIEST OF LIES, perfect for fans of LONG LIVE EVIL and BEST SERVED COLD.
Eline is a mother, a wife, and a survivor. But her life is about to change dramatically. Following an act of horrific—if righteous—vengeance, Eline is blackmailed into the service of the Queen's Men. She knows it will be a hard life of violence and fear. But Eline will do what it takes to survive, and to protect her children... and if she's lucky, she won't die in the process.
But the Queen's Men aren't just asking her to risk herself. They're asking her to risk everything she knows and loves. And if she fails... civil war and the deaths of everyone she loves will be just the beginning.
Paved with Good Intentions is a stand-alone novel set in the world of the War for the Rose Throne, perfect for fans of Joe Abercrombie and Alex Marshall, featuring an incredible and unforgettable female anti-hero.
