A nice light read, an intricately plotted fantasy actually written for young adults, but who cares! A reformed thief and the young leader of an outlaw dynasty lock wits in a battle that may cost them their lives and their hearts in this new novel from the author of The Remnant Chronicles. When the patriarch of the Ballenger empire dies, his son Jase becomes its new leader. Even nearby kingdoms bow to the strength of this outlaw family who have always governed by their own rules. But a new era looms on the horizon, set in motion by a young queen, which makes her the target of the dynasty's resentment and anger. At the same time, Kazi, a legendary former street thief, is sent by the queen to investigate transgressions against the new settlements. When she arrives in the forbidding land of the Ballengers, she learns that there is more to Jase than she thought. As unexpected events spiral out of their control, bringing them intimately together, they continue to play a cat and mouse game of false moves and motives to fulfil their own secret missions. This is a story of three fierce young women of the Rahtan and a dark secret that threatens the entire continent. Set in the world of the Remnant Chronicles, this is a heart-pounding story. 505pp, paperback.
