Paperback
Taeva Goldmead is miserable.
She thought adventuring would be like the stories in her favorite adventure novels, with her as the spell-slinging bard. Instead, after a magical mishap, she’s stuck back home, serving mead at her family’s tavern, The Honey Goblet.
Her days of collecting tips in her violin case are long behind her when a shocking murder rattles the city. Then a meddling wizard apprentice and her lutist friend shake up the tavern. The ghosts of Taeva’s brief adventuring past threaten to keep her in her cozy yet stifling home, but her newfound friends won’t let her lock herself away. With them at her side, Taeva picks up her bow again to face down the magic that has haunted her for months. And all the while, she finds hints and clues that the murderer might not be who the entire city suspects.
The perfect note never eluded her, nor will the truth behind the butchery. That is, if the phantoms from her botched quest don’t find her first.
