The Twisted Path: A Twenty Palaces Novella

Ray Lilly has been summoned to the headquarters of the Twenty Palace Society to answer one question: How has he managed to survive mission after mission fighting alongside his boss, Annalise? He doesn't have the power of a full peer of the society. He's a wooden man. An assistant. A diversion. The other peers want to know what's going on, so it's off to Europe for a trip to the First Palace. And no place in the world is safer than inside the headquarters of the Twenty Palace Society, right?

Right? If you're new to Ray Lilly and Annalise, this isn't the place to start reading. Try either Child of Fire or Twenty Palaces first.
