Leila Qassem has never forgiven her father. She has never asked herself why.
She spends her days in a quiet room in the port city of Marrowgate, helping strangers face the people they have hurt. She is patient. She is careful. She knows exactly when to stay silent and when to listen.
Then a frightened young client tells her about the brass scale he stole. It turns the room cold at night. It wears faces it has no right to wear. It speaks in the dry, polite voice of a merchant counting coins.
And it knows her name.
The thing inside the scale does not grant wishes. It settles debts. It will give you back everything you are owed, and the price is so small you will hardly notice it is gone.
Leila has a mark beneath her thumbnail that she has always called a scar.
Now an old family is closing in on her, her mother is guarding a silence twenty-five years deep, and the voice in the brass has made her an offer she should not want to accept.
Some debts are older than anyone remembers. Some are still being paid.
