Back in black!
In the Undercity of Corvis, where mercenaries and criminals blur the
lines between them, a ruthless crime lord has made a bold move to
establish a stranglehold on Corvis' underworld and make it his own.
When Canice Gormleigh becomes the target of a brutal foreign crime
syndicate called the Black Dogs, Colbie Sterling and the rest of the
Black River Irregulars are prepared to defend her. Yet what begins as a
simple bodyguard assignment turns personal when the syndicate, led by
the vengeful underboss Ivan Varnek and a strange mother-son duo, marks
the Black River Irregulars as the sole remaining obstacle keeping the
Black Dogs from taking over the Undercity...and then the city of Corvis
itself. Where other underworld gangs have negotiated, surrendered, or
fled from the Black Dogs, the Black River Irregulars will stand and die
instead....
