A vicious wind screamed through the colorless, snow-buried lanes of Smeerenberg. Jesper, a pampered heir stuffed into a mailman’s uniform two sizes too large, fled in blind panic from a brawl that had erupted over a bell he’d foolishly rung. Desperate, he threw himself through the nearest doorway and into a wall of humid, foul-smelling air—a chaotic fish market. The stench of brine and death clung to his clothes. Trembling, he staggered toward the counter, his fair skin pale, blue eyes wide with a mixture of horror and disgust. His gaze locked onto you, who stood waiting with a cleaver in hand and a massive, glistening fish laid out on the block.
