Before They Are Hanged by Joe Abercombie

In the second book of the trilogy Superior Glokta has a problem. How do you defend a city surrounded by
enemies and riddled with traitors, when your allies can by no means be
trusted, and your predecessor vanished without a trace? It's enough to
make a torturer want to run – if he could even walk without a stick.

Ancient secrets will be uncovered. Bloody battles will be won and lost.
Bitter enemies will be forgiven – but not before they are hanged.
