Assassin’s heart is the debut novel of Sarah Ahiers a compelling fantasy novel about assassins and traitors.

Lea is a Saldana the first Assassin family in the kingdom. She is in a relationship with Val, a De Viers, the second family and the richest. One night she awakens with her house in fire and her family fighting against other assassins, somehow they have found their home and have been able to get in. She escapes having to leave everyone behind even a little part of herself, and knowing only that De Viers are responsible of her family mass murder. Her only hope to fulfill her revenge is to find her lost uncle, ex-husband of the now head of De Viers family and the only that knows where their house is located as well as the way to get in. However, the journey will not be easy since she will have to face angry ghosts in addition to other assassins.

“Assassin’s heart” was a really good and surprisingly easy to read fantasy book. I mean this last thing as a positive comment since the fantasy world is unique but it resembles our world physically especially the past of cities like Florence and Venice, which makes it easy to imagine it. I liked the mystery behind it and the fact that as well as the main character, somehow you want Val’s family not to be involved. I really liked how everything develops fast but with enough stops to make to wander and keep going. I like how badass our main character is since the beginning, but how she is also sensitive and cares about others.

“Assassin’s heart” was an amazing book. I really recommend it to anyone that looks for a good adventure book with hints of the Italian Renaissance and assassins. About the continuation, I think I will read it since I really liked the book, however it ended up in a good place, therefore I am not sure.
