Lucas Mollifer is the stuff of legend in Grandony. He and his crew of thieves have swindled some of the wealthiest nobles in the land, and now he's angling for his biggest score to date: the Duke's private vault in the Scarlet Keep. But even the location of the vault is a closely held secret, so he will need to play a long game and enter the Duke's confidence if he's to have any hope of success. This will call for the thief's most audacious gambit yet: enter the Scarlet Keep... as the foremost expert on Lucas Mollifer.Of course, no job goes off without a hitch. As the game of cat and mouse between Mollifer's crew and the law continues, tensions mount. What are they willing to sacrifice in order to pull off the heist of the century? What lines are they willing to cross? And what is Lucas hiding-even from his own crew?
