Mari Murdock

    Mari Murdock sa zameriava na literárnu analýzu a skúma témy spojené s modernizmom naprieč Atlantikom. Jej tvorba sa často ponára do zložitých svetov a rozpráva príbehy prostredníctvom pútavého prózy. S citom pre detail a hlbokým porozumením postáv sa jej písanie vyznačuje jedinečnou schopnosťou vtiahnuť čitateľov do realít, ktoré obývajú. Jej literárny štýl kombinuje precíznosť s nápaditosťou, čo z nej robí výraznú autorku, ktorej diela rezonujú dlho po dočítaní.

    Whispers of Shadow and Steel
    • In the City of Lies, whom do you think you can trust? Bayushi Yojiro is known as the “only honest Scorpion” in the samurai clan infamous for its liars, schemers, and secrets. As an Emerald Magistrate, his duty is to uphold the Emperor’s laws and ensure justice is done. As a Scorpion, his duty is to loyally serve the interests of his clan—even if that means sacrificing his own honor. As both, Yojiro walks a line as razor-thin as the edge of a katana. When a dignitary of a rival clan is murdered in the Scorpion-controlled City of Lies, Yojiro is sent to help investigate and bring the killer to justice. His fellow magistrates expect him to prevent Scorpion interference, while his clan expects him to protect its secrets. Where do his loyalties truly lie, and whom will he be forced to betray?
