Summary
The vampires who emerged with the closing of the Fold don’t trouble the Geldstraat. Ketterdam’s rich live securely, with powerful wards against the supernatural built into the fabric of their houses and private security to walk their streets after dark. The rest of the city does what they can to keep safe, but the last line of defense for the poor, the helpless, and the unlucky are the Flames. Chosen by the University of Ketterdam’s Night Science Institute and sponsored by the city in the interests of preserving their labor force, Flames hunt vampires through the streets, accompanied by University-trained Wardens who strengthen and protect them.
Ever since Inej’s parents were killed, she’s devoted herself to a single ambition: becoming a Flame. But on the streets of Ketterdam, the future she dreamed of may not look much like the future she gets.

Summary
Jesper says it must be blackmail. Maybe murder. There’s no other way Kaz Brekker could already be holding a full professorship at the University of Ketterdam, no matter how many books he’s written. Inej, trapped by an adjunct’s contract which is the only thing standing between her and deportation, is willing to risk the obvious dangers of his company in exchange for the advantages, professional and otherwise. But when the department’s budget comes up suspiciously short, Inej’s job is on the line, and Kaz isn’t ready to let her go without a fight.

Summary
In the depths of his cycle, Ketterdam says, Kaz Brekker is the worst kind of monster, a koper who kills any ankopje he gets his hands on. All Inej knows for sure is that he disappears completely every six months. But now, in the confined space of the boat back from Fjerda, with Van Eck's thirty million waiting for them, their cycles have fallen into sync, and Inej is in danger of finding out just how true the rumors really are.
(Or: I made a Kanej A/B/O and applied a Grishaverse linguistic skin and I do not expect anyone to forgive me.)
