Sometimes it takes something darker than good,

TRULY EVIL
After killing her abusive husband, Malah has no choice but to beg the king's torturer for a favor--to get her far away, and safe from the king's deadly vengeance.
Crane agrees--if nothing else, entertained by the idea of such a fun and challenging job. But as time passes and the king's fury begins to bleed out, this professional torturer will have to decide how far he'll go to keep his end of the promise.
Even if it means KILLING A KING OR TWO.
