The Master of Samar - Melissa Scott - Bog

"Rejected by his aristocratic family, Gil Irichels has been making his living as a traveling cursebreaker until a series of suspicious deaths leave him the sole heir to the family's house and fortune. As he struggles to find a place in the seaborne city of Bejanth, he stumbles on a dangerous secret: someone is unraveling the web of magic on which the city depends--and it may already be too late to repair."--Page [4] of cover.
