Synopsis

The Republic of Milan. 1285 AD

Rebecca Guarna carves her way free of a gritty past and into an action-packed world of deception. The Blade of Milan is at once a thriller, adventure, and one woman's quest for a higher purpose in life despite the limitations of her time. Failed by those who should have loved her the most, Rebecca is raised in Milan's prestigious brothels, spending nights plotting her escape. Bitter and skilled with a blade, she inflicts revenge on wealthy patrons. Rebecca's bloodlust attracts the attention of Rustichello, the master of the Sons of Saint George, a centuries-old league of assassins sworn to protect the Roman Catholic pope's interests. Ambitious yet naive, Rebecca joins Rustichello to learn the art of sabotage and stealth. Between pirate schemes and evading a rival brotherhood of assassins, Rebecca accidentally provokes a secret feud between the pope in Rome and emperor in Austria. Meanwhile, sinister truths come to light at the righteous heart of the Sons of Saint George, threatening to destabilize Rebecca's newfound purpose and the republic of Milan forever.
