No matter where you go, the Bel Dames will find you
Nyx used to be an assassin, part of the sisterhood of the Bel Dames. Now she's babysitting diplomats to make ends meet and longs for the days when killing was a lot more honorable. So, when her former 'sisters' lead a coup against the government, she's the perfect choice to stop them.

Infidel is a well thought-out and intelligent novel, which asks a number of questions and refuses to present easy answers. * SFF Chronicles *
Readers who enjoyed God's War will not be disappointed by Infidel... I highly recommend it. * Strange Horizons Magazine *
Hurley's world-building, vivid and blissfully free of infodumps and expository lumps, was one of the great strengths of God's War, and it's a pleasure to return to the fascinating and messed-up world she created -- one especially enjoyable for its ethnically diverse cast and freewheeling remixes of traditional gender roles. * Tor.com *
...Kameron Hurley is worth investing in... this is ground breaking work and should be recognized... * Staffer's Musings *
