Malkin City. The capital of the Commonwealth. The confluence of Fae and Human civilization. Invictus Jones finally achieved his dream of living in Malkin City, working for a prestigious shipping company. But that dream did not include being robbed at gunpoint on day one by a Fae. The police's timely arrival prevents the thief from doing any harm, but the incident leaves with him questions. What caused a Fae, of all creatures, to turn to crime? And why rob a nobody like him? But Invictus's search for answers paints a target on his back, drawing attention from the city's criminal underworld and threatening to ensnare him in a trap he cannot escape.
