Best Served Cold

In the war-torn land of Styria, Springtime brings not renewal, but a fresh tide of bloodshed. Monza Murcatto, the feared 'Snake of Talins' and Grand Duke Orso's most successful mercenary, finds her triumphs overshadowed by her growing popularity. This proves to be a fatal mistake when Orso, threatened by her influence, orchestrates a brutal betrayal, leaving her for dead at the bottom of a mountain. Miraculously, Monza survives, albeit broken, and fuelled by an unquenchable thirst for vengeance. Her target: the seven men responsible for her downfall. Gathering an unlikely and deeply flawed crew – including Styria's most unreliable drunkard, its most treacherous poisoner, a numbers-obsessed mass-murderer, and a Northman striving for righteousness – Monza embarks on a brutal, bloody odyssey across Styria. As she hunts down her targets, she navigates a treacherous landscape of political intrigue, personal demons, and an even more dangerous adversary dispatched to finish the job Orso started. This is a tale of brutal justice, where the line between hero and monster blurs under the relentless pursuit of revenge.
