    Summary

    He’s like all the others, when they bring him in. More than half dead, covered in mud. Leg almost hanging off him, just a mess of torn flesh and exposed bone. Likely won’t survive. God knows Inej has seen better off than him succumb to their injuries.

    Northern France, 1917. In a battlefield hospital, Corporal Kaz Rietveld lies gravely wounded. His nurse is determined that he will not be another thing she loses to this war.

    Summary

    “You think you can just call up Kaz Brekker and he’ll hop on the next ship to Ravka?" asks Zoya. "He’s gone mad, Nikolai."
    Nikolai can’t argue that Kaz Brekker is the wildest of cards in his deck. But what choice does he have? He needs a master, and Brekker is the most masterful of them all.
    “I know how we can get him on board.”
    Zoya scoffs. “Nina says he’s positively unhinged since Inej Ghafa’s death years ago. Jesper and Wylan fled here after a nasty encounter with the bastard.”
    “I know a way,” he says. Everyone has a weakness, as Kaz would say, and Nikolai knows exactly what Kaz’s is. “Inej Ghafa is alive.”

    Three years after the events of Crooked Kingdom, the Crows have fallen apart. Inej, in order to protect herself, has been faking her death for the past two years. Kaz, overridden with grief, finally snaps and goes mad. Wylan, Jesper, and Nina flee back to Ravka, but when the Wandering Isle closes its harbor and the Fjerdans threaten war, Nikolai needs a crew that can infiltrate Maroch Castle and gather information.
    Can the crows overcome the traumas of their past, the shortcomings of their present, and their fears of the future for one final mission?

    Summary

    Kaz and Inej crisscross state lines, organizing workers into unions. Sometimes they win. Sometimes they lose. And one time, on a cold night in Pittsburgh, they lie together in a very small bed, and they talk. And more than talk.

    Our lives shall not be sweated, from birth until life closes;
    Hearts starve as well as bodies; give us bread, but give us roses!

    Summary

    There always seems to be one last job he needs her for. The jobs, according to Jesper, are "unnecessary" and “really transparent excuses to see Inej again.” But this one isn’t. Obviously. And he’ll prove it. By being brusque and cold and businesslike.

    Inej does not want brusque and cold and businesslike. She wants, at least, a proper goodbye. And, Kaz discovers, she didn't sail back to Ketterdam in a filthy, humid summer to not get what she wants.
