Tandis qu’au terme d’un hiver rigoureux, le sanglant conflit qui depuis des décennies opposait les royaumes de Valhalarie et d’Arcanie s’apprêtait à reprendre avec les premiers beaux jours, venu des terres du sud, d’au-delà des infranchissables Montagnes noires, un mal étrange commença à se répandre dans le florissant et paisible royaume d'Ambria. Ce mal se révélant bien plus dévastateur qu’une simple épidémie de peste noire, les infortunées populations se retrouvèrent vite confrontées à un inimaginable fléau. Infectant les hommes plus rapidement que le venin d’un serpent, cette affection muait les plus paisibles des individus en de féroces engeances avides de chair et de vies. Des êtres aux corps décharnés, mais animés d’une rage inhumaine que tous surnommèrent bien vite les « camardeux ». Suite à de trop nombreux désastres militaires, des unités de combattants aguerris furent peu à peu constituées. Composées de mercenaires rompus à toutes les techniques de combat, ces cohortes d’élite se révélèrent être les seules unités combattantes à même d’affronter sans fléchir le fléau qui menaçait les terres de Sandar. On les nommait les chasse-morts. L’un d’entre eux, un vieux guerrier sans mémoire, surnommé Sang-Noir, va se donner pour mission de trouver et de détruire l’origine de ce fléau. Un voyage jugé sans retour pour lui et les quelques braves qui l’accompagneront.

"The two of us against all of them? How unfair for them."In Velles, a cosmopolitan city of fading magic, the prince’s daughter, and heir to the throne, has gone missing. That she appears to have done so voluntarily is of little consolation to the prince.He hires Hokuren, a newly independent private investigator who demands perfection of herself and works tirelessly until she’s solved the case. And she always solves the case–even if most of them so far have been finding lost pet cats (don’t tell anyone that part).Her assistant is Cinna, an elf hired fresh off the streets–literally. She’s everything Hokuren is not: sloppy, uneducated, and lacking in restraint or filter. But Cinna’s impulsiveness and willingness to get her hands dirty makes her the perfect foil for Hokuren’s reserved, thoughtful nature.As the two chase down the princess, their case develops into a much bigger conspiracy. Hokuren doggedly pursues secret after secret, unraveling a scheme to find a long-lost goddess that’s been running in the background of Velles’s seedy underbelly for over two decades. And she might find out that her unassuming assistant hides the biggest secret of them all...A lighthearted and fast-paced fantasy adventure full of action, mystery and sly humor, Cinnamon Soul is also the heart-warming exploration of an unbreakable bond of friendship forged between two women as they struggle against the forces of the elite and powerful.
