Below Covent Garden lies the Untermarkt, where anything and everything has a price: a lover's first blush, a month of honesty, a wisp of fortune. As a child, Deri was sold to one of the Market's most powerful merchants. After years of watchful servitude, Deri finally spots a chance to buy not only his freedom but also his place amongst the Market's elite when he stumbles into the path of a runaway princess desperate to sell her royal destiny. Royal enforcers and Master Merchants alike are after the princess and her destiny. Deri must outmaneuver them all-- and trying to save the love of his life, a young man called Owain, whose employers are using the Market for their own nefarious schemes. The cost of it all might just change the destiny of London forever. -- adapted from back cover
