- Reading
- Consider checking in around the peril and loss as you read; pause to discuss what the characters know about the bargains and risks before the stakes rise further.
- Themes
- Power, protection and bargains: Edie operates under the Harbinger’s aegis after Kian’s sacrifice, but the patronage may prove fatal. The setup raises questions about the cost of protection and the choices available to Edie.
- Human lives as game pieces: The game’s opponents are described as treating human lives as less than nothing, while Edie faces threats from their agents. This premise foregrounds an imbalance of power and danger to people caught in the game.
- Worth knowing
- Expect peril, supernatural threats and a character described as raw from deep loss. The outline does not clarify how graphic or sustained these elements are.
