-or Betty Martin

Jo Maguire, Duchess of Southeast, Hawk's Widow and Huntsman to the Court of Roses, has denied her Queen a second time, setting aside her office, her title, and her sword. Ysabel Perry, Sun-clad, Mountain-shod, the Rose arisen from the bitterest of tears, has crossed the river and thrown open her treasury; any and all might take what they need-so long as they do not serve the Viscount Agravante. The court is on the brink of civil war, and whether in a junk-shop or a rooftop garden, a riverside carnival or a hillside mansion, a dilapidated houseboat or a caravan, out by the airport-sides must be chosen, once and for all.

-or Betty Martin collects chapters 34 - 44 of the critically acclaimed urban fantasy epic, continuing the story begun in Vol. 1, "Wake up...", and continued in Vol. 2, The Dazzle of Day, and Vol. 3, In the Reign of Good Queen Dick.
