This Monster of MineThis Monster of Mine

Eighteen-year-old Sarai doesn't know why someone tried to kill her four years ago, but she does know her case was closed without justice. Hellbent on vengeance and now a Petitor-a prosecutor who can magically detect lies--she returns to the scene of the crime, assigned to work with Tetrarch Kadra. Ice-cold and perennially sadistic, Kadra is the most vicious of the four judges who rule the land of UrDinye--and the prime suspect in a string of deaths identical to Sarai's attempted murder. Certain of Kadra's guilt, Sarai begins a double life: solving cases with him by day and plotting his ruin by night. But Kadra is charming, and there's something alluring about the wrath he wields against the city's corruption. When she finds evidence that embroils her in a deadly political battle, Sarai must also fight against her attraction to Kadra--because despite his growing hold on her heart, his voice matches the only memory she has of her assailant...
