When Ang's boss is framed for the murder of Bar-Selehm's prime minister, the seventeen-year-old former steeplejack is determined to clear his name. But with a racist coalition government at the helm and a mysterious illness sweeping the nonwhite neighborhoods, it won't be easy for her. This conclusion to the timely alt-history fantasy trilogy (Steeplejack; Firebrand), led by a remarkable female protagonist of color, is both eloquent and exciting.
