ONE FOOT IN EACH WORLD...
Imre Dahl, the manager of Shades, Snohomish's most elite members-only club, has a problem. Actually, he has many problems, the biggest one that he's been strongarmed into hosting a political dinner for Mayor Feddersen. Nothing good ever comes from something like this.
Complicating things further, Imre's long exile from Rabat is almost at an end. All he needs to do is endure one last meeting with the powerful and mercurial Mademoiselle Beaumont. At the same time, his personal bodyguards have been called away to pay a debt, and the timing couldn't be worse.
If he worked only in the shadows, many of Imre's problems could be solved by a bullet, but now that he works in the light, he's forced to play nice with big fishes in small ponds. Of course, even in the light, nothing is as it seems, and forces are conspiring against Imre to make his life hell, and possibly destroy Shades in the bargain.
The biggest question of all is can he stop the plots he can't see, but knows are coming, while pulling off the political event of the year?
