The King of Nothing
by A. E. Maxwell, Elizabeth Lowell
Fiora had decided to sell her investment business so we could become "partners." I wasn't sure about the partner bit, but I was real sure I liked having her close by.
So what was the problem?
Good question.
By the time I figured out the answer, a good man was dead, I had inherited the cursed sword that had indirectly killed him, and someone was trying to kill Fiora and me the direct way...all in the name of better international relations.
Originally published July 1992 in hardcover and July 1994 in mass market paperback.
