Scales, a skilled mechanic and fierce warrior, is the Emperor's trusted confidante. When a mysterious murder shatters the fragile peace, Scales, with an unlikely team, must uncover the killer plaguing both Ashtown and Wiley City. As she delves into the secrets hidden beneath the city's pristine exterior, Scales unravels startling truths, forcing her to confront a past she'd rather forget.

To save the world, she must break her silence, even if it means sacrificing everything.
