Publisher's blurb: "Despite its close proximity to Bone Gate, the Skull & Dagger does a poor business. The ogre just inside the door probably brings in as many customers as the tavern's rancid smell, and I personally do not recommend the half-shell oysters and pepper sauce... "Frond Arnhild, a former gladiatorial slave, owns the Skull & Dagger. He is gruff, sullen, and dangerous, and his past and present were my reasons for being here."
