In a far future city, where you can fall to a government cull for a single mistake, And What Can We Offer You Tonight tells the story of Jewel, established courtesan in a luxurious House.
Jewel's world is shaken when her friend is murdered by a client, but somehow comes back to life. To get revenge, they will both have to confront the limits of loyalty, guilt, and justice.
And What Can We Offer You Tonight by Premee Mohamed is a dystopian thriller with a breathless, unique voice.
The Nebula Awards, 2022
"Moody and atmospheric...The lush prose, rife with classical allusions, captivates, echoing the brothel's penchant for containing horrors but covering them up in a wealth of gilded detail. Mohamed's fans won't want to miss the mesmerizing lyricality of her latest." —Publishers Weekly
''And What Can We Offer You Tonight is a deep dive into sacred revenge, a vivid, devastating and exquisite story of love and loyalty, among three friends who cannot afford such luxuries. Premee Mohamed offers a meticulously balanced cocktail of heartbreak, compromise and consequence, a mixture whose flavour will seep into your marrow and print itself into your blood forever.'' —L.X. Beckett, author of Gamechanger and Dealbreaker
''Mohamed weaves a most beautiful and powerful spell with a thin crust of gorgeous prose and coy smiles barely hiding the powerful, growing rage beneath. Much like the dead, it's a tale that keeps haunting long after the story ends.'' —Leigh Harlen, author of Queens of Noise
