Excerpt

At a word, Tomic is unremarkable. He wears plain hemp and linens, dirtied and scuffed here and there as evidence of his work in the gardens and fishing boat. He is almost always sporting a soft smile and a gruff, warm voice – though that vibe is betrayed by a curved and sharp tattoo that trails down his neck and into his shirt. Tomic usually fades into the background when he’s not the focus of attention.

Back when, I was a high-ranking guild assassin for The Housekeepers. I made a living as a poisoner, and I’ve led a poisoned life. I met a lover who helped me escape – first in heart, then in body. My love… She was killed as we left our old home, but I carry on what she taught me here, growing a garden and mending the sick for a new family. With everything that’s happened, though, I fear the Abbey is in for a rough time.
