Three hundred years after the events of the Mistborn trilogy, Scadrial has entered a new industrial age. Railroads, electric lights, and the first skyscrapers now pierce the skyline, but the old magics of Allomancy and Feruchemy remain. In this evolving world, Waxillium Ladrian, a lawman from the frontier known as the Roughs, is forced to abandon his life of chasing criminals. Following a family tragedy, he must return to the metropolis of Elendel to assume his role as the head of a noble house, a life of politics and polite society he never wanted.

Wax believes his days of adventure are behind him, but he soon discovers that the elegant city streets can be far more treacherous than the dusty plains. A shadowy criminal group known as the Vanishers is pulling off daring heists and kidnappings, and the local law enforcement is powerless to stop them. Pulled between his new duties and his innate sense of justice, Wax must decide whether to embrace his life as a nobleman or take up his guns once more. This story combines the intrigue of a detective mystery with the unique magic and action of the Mistborn world, creating a fast-paced, gunslinging fantasy adventure.
