Most folk in the Territory never think about the magic around them. They’ve never encountered a magician, fought a spell-beast, or bargained with the devil.

Gabriel Kasun is not most folk.

A year spent mentoring Isobel Lacoyo Távora, the Devil’s Left Hand, brought him closer to the Territory’s magic than he'd ever wanted. But now Gabriel is on his own again, free of all obligation.

Except the Territory - and his own destiny - isn’t quite done with him yet.

A brand-new novella set in the award-winning world of The Devil’s West!

"Wonderful and beautifully written...Fate creeps up on Gabriel with the inexorability of the rising tide in this insightful, character-driven addition to Gilman's Devil's West series. Old readers will be delighted with the revelation of hinted-at secrets, and new readers will be intrigued and want more."
