And this also sort of crosses over into the mystery genre as well...

Anyway, Servant of the Underworld is the first in the Obsidian and Blood series by Aliette de Bodard. I've read all (I think) of the titles in this series and quite liked them. Servant has recently dropped to $2.99 at Kindle US.

I really enjoyed this book as well. Very atmospheric.

Thanks for reminding me about this series! I have the second book but haven't read it yet.
