Gallows Pole by Eris Adderly

4.0

Woman makes a deal with a hangman to save her brother's life. Fast paced little short story. It was interesting to get a glimpse of a side of history that you don’t think about often. Emmat was a strong and smart heroine. She had every reason to dig her heels in and hate Vane, but she instead recognized all the similarities between them and chose to build something from that. The chaplain is the real MVP though!
