Meet investigator Lucan Drakenfeld in the first title of the urban fantasy series by Mark Charan Newton.

WHEN JUSTICE FAILS, REVENGE FOLLOWS... Having just solved a difficult case in his home city of Tryum, Sun Chamber Officer Lucan Drakenfeld and his associate Leana are ordered to journey to the exotic city of Kuvash in Koton, where a revered priest has gone missing. When they arrive, they discover the priest has already been found - or at least parts of him have. But investigating the unusual death isn't a priority for the legislature of Kuvash; there's a kingdom to run, a census to create and a dictatorial Queen to placate. Soon Drakenfeld finds that he is suddenly in charge of an investigation in a strange city, whose customs and politics are as complex as they are dangerous.Kuvash is a city of contradictions; wealth and poverty exist uneasily side-by-side and behind the rich façades of gilded streets and buildings, all levels of depravity and decadence are practised.When several more bodies are discovered mutilated and dumped in a public place, Drakenfeld realizes there's a killer at work who seems to delight in torture and pain. With no motive, no leads and no suspects, he feels like he's running out of options. And in a city where nothing is as it seems, seeking the truth is likely to get him killed . . .Retribution is the second Lucan Drakenfeld novel, following Drakenfeld.

In the third book of The Legends of the Red Sun series, a corrupt Emperor seeks to restore Villjamur, but chaos ensues with the arrival of Shalev and a militant uprising. Investigator Fulcrom faces challenges managing the secretive Villjamur Knights while a mysterious priest threatens the church and the Empire's stability.

A soldier's disappearance prompts a partnership between a commander of the Night Guard and an inspector, who struggle to understand what has gone wrong in their decimated, gang-torn city.

When tragedy strikes--and the Emperor's elder daughter, Jamur Rika, is summoned to serve as queen, Inspector Rumex Jeryd focuses his immediate attention on the grisly murder of a councillor--and to an obscene conspiracy that threatens the lives of Rika, her sister, her dashing teacher, and the future of Villjamur itself. But in the far north, where the drawn-out winter has already begun, an even greater threat appears--a threat from another world.
