Description
A fantasy tale of a father and the monstrous city in which his children may disappear forever
Mercenary general Shard Harken has spent his life on battlefields for other people, but now he fights for himself. When his children are kidnapped, he is forced into the deadly courts and halls of Peak, the greatest and richest city in the Fallen Quarter.
Within its 100 floors, thousands struggle for survival and for wealth, all hoping to leave the dark low floors for the upper levels and a life of clean air, light, and warmth.
Faced with a dangerous and skilled opponent, Harken must call on help from a handful of friends willing to challenge the powerful guilds, the mysterious Bone Men, and the ruthless Lord Magnus.
As Harken's search takes him deep into the city, Magnus and his beloved Veil, the last surviving mystic, prepare the final stages of their life's work, a deadly plan that may exact a terrible price.
A tale of love and violence in a dangerous and unique city, The Mischief of Rats sees a father risk everything on a mission that could change the world.
From the author of the steampunk adventure The Policeman of Secrets, this fantasy thriller brings together a host of vivid characters who are thrown together in a deadly setting. From bold warriors like Shard Harken to the low citizens who make Peak function, each will have a part to play in the life-or-death struggle that unfolds on and between floors.
Take a journey through Peak, and discover if Veil can overcome the mischief of rats.
