If there's not another book to follow I'll probably cry?
I took sort of a plunge on this one; the author is the roommate of a friend of mine, and I picked it up cold, and ended up screaming through it at high speed. I find the two main characters really compelling, and the antagonist (when you get to them) terrifying.

Alexandra Rowland grew up swashbuckling across the seven seas and reading everything she could get her hands on. When grown-ups said, "If you like reading so much, I bet you'll be a good writer one day," she would tell them in no uncertain terms how very wrong they were, because she hated writing with a passion.
