Publisher's Summary

When a corpse found floating face-down in Vilnoc harbor is not quite as dead as it seems, Temple sorcerer Penric and his chaos demon Desdemona are drawn into the uncanny investigation. Pen’s keen questions will take him across the city of Vilnoc, and into far more profound mysteries, as his search for truths interlaces with tragedy.

Somber addition to the series

I thought I had read it before as it was so similar to the beginning of another in the series. I thought this was going to be a horror or horror adjacent novella, but it ended up being just sad.

Not my favourite in the series.
