About this book

Six months after the events of The Republic of Thieves, Locke Lamora and Jean Tannen are trying to get back on their feet with a big con: they plan to sell the services of a mercenary company that does not exist to the besieged city-state of Emberlain, and be gone with the fee before the war overruns it.

But nothing goes as planned, and Locke is forced to become a soldier as the war that has been brewing flares up, while he must also face the rumours about his past. The fourth book in Scott Lynch's Gentleman Bastard sequence.
