A courtesan on a mission. A brothel ravished by greed. A murder to avenge. Dellwyn Rutt loves her life as a courtesan. For years, she has enjoyed the simple pleasures and lavish gifts of her trade. Now she wants more: the title of madam. But Madam Huxley, the brothel's current proprietor, refuses to name a successor-a problem that is amplified by the legalization of adultery. As the new law sends lusty clients flocking to the brothel, Madam Huxley's greed grows unchecked at the workers' expense. Only one outsider seems to care: a self-proclaimed prophet who won't rest until the unholy institution is abolished. After weeks of abuse, Dellwyn desperately seeks a way to subdue Madam Huxley's tyranny. But when another courtesan is murdered, Dellwyn must set her struggles aside and solve the crime. The only problem? All evidence points to Dellwyn's friends&hellip, and to her. Driven by twisting turns, peppered with witty dialog, and shadowed by unrequited love, The Courtesan's Avenger is a cozy mystery in a steampunk fantasy world. Follow Dellwyn's search for justice.
