Rîul liniştit

Once the favourite daughter of one of the world's most powerful families, Lore van der Oest is now alone and desperate. She wakes naked and injured in a back alley of a strange city - dumped by kidnappers - and has no one to turn to. Not the police, because she believes she killed one of her captors. Not her family: they did not pay her ransom.

Out of the rain walks Spanner, predator and thief, who takes Lore in and teaches her the intoxication of life on the wrong side of the law ... until Lore loathes what she has become. Only by confronting her own demons can Lore meld together who she once was, who she has become, and the person she intends to be.
