The Thief Who Pulled on Troubles Braids
Amra Thetys lives by two simple rules — take care of business, and never let it get personal. Thieves don't last long in Lucernis otherwise. But when a fellow rogue and good friend is butchered on the street in a deal gone wrong, she turns her back on burglary and goes after something more precious than treasure: Revenge.
Revenge, however, might be hard to come by. A nightmare assortment of enemies, including an immortal assassin and a mad sorcerer, believe Amra is in possession of The Blade That Whispers Hate — the legendary, powerful artifact her friend was murdered for — and they'll do anything to take it from her. Trouble is, Amra hasn't got the least clue where the Blade might be.
She needs to find the Blade, and soon, or she'll be joining her colleague in a cold grave instead of avenging his death. Time is running out for the small, scarred thief.
