Ren Kurogane is the Broker's best knife — a boyish, emotionless assassin shorter than any woman he's ever met. To build the crew his next contract demands, he starts redeeming the indenture papers of women sold into debt-bondage, one by one, no more than their skill requires. They don't know why he saved them. He doesn't know why it's starting to matter. Nine names on a ledger, seven blank — and something is already hunting the ones he's bought.
