Twelve years ago, the water was sent into the Salt Quarter. By morning, the city had decided whose fault it was.
Every November, when the names of the twenty-nine dead are read aloud, the crowd lowers its voice for one of them. Lev Rook, the engineer blamed for the flood that killed him. His daughter Isadora, a gifted document conservator, has spent a decade trying to clear his name.
Then a frightened witness brings her a strip of recorder paper that should not exist. It says the floodgate did not fail on its own. Someone moved it by hand. In fifteen days, the only machine that can prove it will be destroyed.
The night she files her inquiry, Cassian Vale is at her door. Bellwether calls him the Devil. His mother runs the Floodworks Authority. His name is on the report that condemned her father. He is the last man Isadora should trust, and the one she cannot stop wanting.
As a powerful family closes ranks, what is the truth worth, and what will it cost to love a man who never asks twice?
