A Dangerous Brew

Meena Prakanati abandoned her life as the Jade Emperor's lover and spymaster and did what few had done-made a fresh start.

She built her teashop in the imperial city of Hostlann, two oceans and a continent away from her old life. And more importantly, far from the conspiracies and the seductive romance behind the seat of power.

Until one night when a mysterious bard arrives at her door, bearing a letter that the Jade Emperor has been assassinated!

Left heartbroken and with a package containing a mystical stone, Meena brings together a new team. Enlisting the cryptographer Raga Stonecleaver and assassin-thief Keeper, she seeks to run down the darkness, uncover her lover's final secrets, and kill anyone who stands between her and vengeance.

Sorcerous cults, secret societies, and vicious gangsters clash as the award-winning author of ATENIA and A WAVE OF LIONS brings you a new adventure where intrigue waits on a dagger's edge! Spies haunt the shadows of a magical underworld where the truth will be uncovered in A DANGEROUS BREW, the first book in the SPYCOUNTERKILLER series!
