Synopsis
Reluctant hero Malfred Murd emerges onto a brand-new stage, set with yet more trouble!
Malfred’s patron has rewarded him with a town of his very own. Proud of the job he’s done ridding it of petty crime— and yearning to earn the love of a certain maddeningly untouchable Lady— he agrees to a task that’s outrageous even for him: turning undercover cop, out to bust the biggest, scariest mob boss in a great, grimy city overflowing with secrets.
Funny, engaging and brilliantly written… The inevitable comparisons to Terry Pratchett are accurate. —Andrew Shanahan, author of Before And After
Sandor is a pro at creating lively, loveable, and distinctive characters readers will want to revisit again and again. —The BookLife Prize
A writer to look out for. — Jim Webster, author of the Tallis Steelyard collection
