Denya Augustine was left orphaned and alone on the streets of Vondar's capital as a child after her brother was hanged for stealing from the royal kitchens. The king sought to make her brother an example. It had the opposite effect on her. She's spent every moment since plotting how to take as much from the king as he took from her. Her answer? She becomes the Ghost of Vondar. She and her underground network don't just help the people. As the Ghost of Vondar, she foils the king's plans and influences politics, through blackmail, theft, and murder, against the king's most ardent and wealthy supporters. Denya takes a reckless opportunity to break into a vault where the crown keeps dark objects and its deepest secrets, despite her gut telling her something is wrong. She soon discovers she's not the only one plotting and scheming from the shadows and quickly learns what it is to confront a faceless phantom out to stop you. It becomes a race to unmask a hooded figure before they do the same to her. The future of Vondar depends on it. She'll risk everything to keep the promise she made as she watched her brother swing from the king's gallows. She'll protect the people and have her revenge even if it means leaving the darkness for the light.
