In Nadežra, peace is a tenuous thing. Corrupt House Indestor has been destroyed, but darkness still weaves through the city's filthy alleys and jewel-bright gardens, visible to those who know where to look. Vargo, Grey and Ren all know. Caught in a knot of secrets and lies, they struggle to decide whom to trust and whom to turn from - a precarious position, even for a ruthless criminal, a notorious vigilante and a brilliant con artist. Because the power they are fighting is more ancient than they can fathom, and they have yet to discover how deeply rooted its poison is. In the end, it will take more than wits and knives to cu t their city free.

Darkly magical and beautifully imagined, The Mask of Mirrors is the unmissable start to the Rook & Rose trilogy, a rich and dazzling fantasy adventure in which a con artist, a vigilante, and a crime lord must unite to save their city. Nightmares are creeping through the city of dreams . . . Renata Virdaux is a con artist who has come to the sparkling city of Nadezra -- the city of dreams -- with one goal: to trick her way into a noble house and secure her fortune and her sister's future. But as she's drawn into the aristocratic world of House Traementis, she realizes her masquerade is just one of many surrounding her. And as corrupted magic begins to weave its way through Nadezra, the poisonous feuds of its aristocrats and the shadowy dangers of its impoverished underbelly become tangled -- with Ren at their heart

In Nadežra ist der Frieden fragil und die Dunkelheit bleibt in der Stadt präsent. Ren verlässt sich auf ihre Gabe, komplexe Muster zu erkennen, um das tödliche Wirrwarr ihrer Stadt zu begreifen. Die Reihe „Rabe und Rose“ umfasst drei Bände: „Die Maske der Spiegel“, „Sturm gegen Stein“ und „Das Pfauennetz“.
