About the book: 2013 / Spring in Styria means war...The Bloody Years last for nineteen years. The ruthless Grand Duke Orso is locked in a brutal struggle with the quarrelsome League of Eight. The white ground between them is drenched in blood. The armies are marching. Heads fly off shoulders. Cities are burning. Meanwhile, bankers, priests and ancient dark forces have started a behind-the-scenes fuss, the goal of which is the election of a king. War may be hell, but for Monza Mercatto, the Serpent of Talin, the most dangerous and famous mercenary in the service of Duke Orso, it is also hell a good way to earn money. Monza's victories made her popular - perhaps too popular, according to her employer. Betrayed, thrown from the mountain and left for dead, Monza found herself - a mutilated body and a burning thirst for revenge. No matter what it costs her, seven people must die. Spring in Styria means revenge.
