​Commodore Cadoc Andersyn monopolizes the seas and controls all international trade. When the chancellor's accountant uncovers suspicious inventory discrepancies, she is determined to make him pay.
Meanwhile in Gantu, where cruelty is an artform, the murder of an aristocrat results in the deepening oppression of the slaves. Nora joins the slave liberation network to vie for her freedom and a chance to be noticed by Gran Messer Marcus Regá.
And in the forest, Meela, the chief of the healing witches, yields to her secret love for the king’s huntsman, violating the rules of her sapphic order. The effects are now eating her alive, and a witch of purification is pursuing her.
In a society of greed and lust precariously balanced upon the flow of magical purification, every decision impacts others in unexpected ways, and now the rumbles of war approach.

Ella is the worst paramedic to ever ride an ambulance, yet somehow she's a "white cloud," a medic for whom everything seems to turn out rosy. She floats through her surreal existence, dodging her ambulance partner's constant insults, until she notices her chilly fingers and resurrects a man from the dead. Startled by her discovery, she turns to the morgue, but Dr. Judah Azriel, pathologist, challenges both her desire to save the world and her understanding of death.
