The Wren in the Holly Library

She stole from a monster – now she must pay the price. Street thief Kierse should have known something wasn’t right. Now she’s trapped in a library - with a monster. She can’t run. She can’t hide. And this man – this being, filled with terrible power and darkness - is well within his rights to kill her. By trespassing, Kierse has broken the fragile peace treaty between monsters and humans. But instead of killing her, Graves does the unexpected: he offers her a job. A chance to find out who she really is. Kierse has always known she’s different. That she can do things a little better, a little faster. And there’s that sense she has when danger is only a breath away. But if the old tales are true, there are worse things in the world than monsters. Like a threat more ancient than legend. Like Graves. Or like Kierse herself.
