Paladin's Faith by T Kingfisher

Marguerite Florian has spent her life acquiring and selling information, using whatever means necessary. When she falls afoul of a powerful former employer, her usual methods of self-preservation no longer work. Fortunately, she has collected enough favors to attempt an audacious scheme to undermine her enemies.

With the service of Shane, a paladin of a dead god and much too handsome for his own good, Marguerite will be forced to navigate a glittering and dangerous court, northern wilds, and the cult of a demon in a brazen attempt to destabilize an entire economy.

Intrigue and violence were to be expected, but is Marguerite prepared for the battle for her soul-and her heart?

Ursula Vernon, a North Carolina-based author, goes by the pen name T.Kingfisher. She has been nominated for the Hugo, Sequoyah, Nebula, Alfie, WSFA, Cóyotl, and Ursa Major awards, as well as a half-dozen Junior Library Guild picks, and has won the Hugo, Sequoyah, Nebula, Alfie, WSFA, Cóyotl, and Ursa Major awards. This is the name she goes by when she writes for adults. Many fairy-tale retellings and strange short stories about elves and goblins are among her works.

She's probably out in the garden, attempting to make eye contact with butterflies while she's not writing. Redwombat Studio can be found at www.redwombatstudio.com.
