    About this ebook

    The Court of Crows has splintered.

    Will they now leave Evie alone?

    Think again.

    An envoy for one of the factions arrives to say that we must repair the Court. I’d much prefer it no longer existed, but Evie agrees and where she goes I go, as well as Din, our flying cat.

    Just how are we meant to repair the Court?

    And if we do, will it ever forgive us?

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      Black Fragments - Sadie Swift

      One

      ––––––––

      Cold mist clung to the ground. An occasional breeze made it look like slow, white waves were breaking against the gravestones and statuary. The sky was clear and a half-moon tried its best to light everything up. I hated cemeteries. Especially at night when I could be in a snug bed with Evie. But I had to be here.

      We’d had a call about some graves being found opened, and when stuff like that happened we got the call. Or, more specifically I got the call. So here I was in my black leather biker gear (remarkably useful against claws and suchlike), knives at the ready, to see what was going on. Normally it’s just kids daring each other to do stupid things. But sometimes it’s not. And that’s where we, or rather I, come in.

      I lurked in the deepest shadow I could find, which was against the side of some family mausoleum. My breath clouded in front of my face. Had it gotten colder suddenly? The breeze, what there was of it, died down to nothing. My sixth sense started kicking me in the back of the head. Slowly, and very quietly I drew my Katana from behind my back. If you ever need to use a knife against anything strange make it the biggest fucker you can.

      My ears strained for any noise, any sound of movement, however small. I swear if a mouse squeaked it’d be sliced in two in an eye-blink.

      About ten yards in front of me something black silently rose up from behind a gravestone. That certainly wasn’t normal. I quickly glanced around. Was it the only one or were there more?

      A sudden breeze sprang up, blowing the mist towards me, high enough to obscure my vision. Fuck!

      I hurried out, my katana pointed in front of me in a two-handed grip. I headed towards where I’d seen the black shape. If I could make sure that wasn’t a human doing stupid things, then fine. But if it wasn’t I’d do my darndest to kill it.

      The mist thickened and my vision was restricted to the tip of my sword. I quickened my pace and suddenly spun round, sword leading in case anything had the bad idea of creeping up on me. Even though I was a big girl I’d trained to be faster than anyone around me, which more often than not caught my opponent by surprise. That’d often saved my life (more than I’d ever admit to Evie – she’d just worry). Nothing was there. I continued on and cursed the gravel suddenly crunching under my boots. How far away from the gravestone was I? I’m sure there was
