Murtairean. An Assassin's Tale (Jenn Lees)
Click to Read an Excerpt
Bent on revenge for her parents’ murder, Leyna travels to a hit where assassins gather, intending to find and kill the one who ruined her life. But she discovers her travelling companion is more than he seems when their pasts come crashing together.

Leyna, now a warrior-woman and high-end thief, turned her back on her title of Lady Leynarve of Monsae after her parents’ assassination.

Vygeas, a mercenary and assassin, has the gift of heightened perception, allowing him to sense his opponents’ emotions and anticipate their every move.

But the once peaceful world of Dál Cruinne, a land of clan kings, lords and sages, warriors and mages, is on the verge of all-out war as Lord Ciaran stirs up trouble with his plans to take High Kingship of the land for himself.

Sickened by the warmongering, Vygeas awaits execution for desertion from Lord Ciaran’s army. But Lord Ciaran gives Vygeas one final task to ensure his freedom—kill a mark and avoid the gallows.

Unaware of Vygeas’ trade, Leyna hitches a ride with this handsome sell-sword with exceptional abilities. Vygeas realises he has encountered the beautiful and capable Leyna’s family before…on a previous hit.
Drostan, a powerful sorcerer-mage in Lord Ciaran’s service, granted Vygeas his special gift years ago. Vygeas sacrificed all he loved to gain it. An old grudge against Vygeas, sitting deep in Drostan’s heart, resurfaces as he pursues Lady Leyna under Lord Ciaran’s orders.

Leyna and Vygeas combine their skills to thwart Drostan’s attempts to capture Lenya and destroy Vygeas.

Fighting their joint foes without, and battling their torments within, Vygeas and Leyna discover the truth that could destroy their newly forged relationship.

Will they allow their past to define them, or can they leave it behind and discover all they could be?
