A ruthless nobleman needs someone capable of doing his dark bidding. Fate drops a common thief on his doorstep.…

Ambitious and proud, Kirrin knows he would rise above the gutter if he could just catch a break. In a desperate moment, he steals from a powerful ruler just to survive. When he is caught, his choice is simple: serve or die.

Kirrin impresses the lord with his quick thinking and fast reflexes, turning his punishment into a golden opportunity. Trained under mystic master fighters, Kirrin transforms into a cunning spy and master thief. And driven by his ambition, he’s assigned increasingly dangerous crimes that develop his cunning and push him to his limits.

He thrills at the challenge and excitement. But what starts as a well-planned theft goes disastrously wrong. Only Kirrin and his overlord know the truth about what happened, and two people with a secret may be one too many.

Kirrin races frantically to clean up the loose ends before anything can lead back to him.

When failure is not an option, how far will Kirrin go to cover his tracks?

Kirrin struggled to impress Hak’kar and earn his lord’s respect. In the process he has made a mess of his life and made questionable decisions. His mother is being held hostage against his continued service and Hak’kar has more work for Kirrin.
