Cursed thief Cord relies on his partner, Nenn, to recover his body, stash the money, and convince the authorities that there are no leads left to follow. They spend their days hitting low-tier lenders and banks, but after a botched robbery, Cord begins to think they need something bigger, something that will set them up for life.When that thing happens to be a heist no one else in the kingdom has the stones to pull off, he gathers a group of rogues with a particular set of talents--Nenn, handy with a knife and a cool head; Rek, cat-fancier and strongman; and Lux, undead wizard. Together, they converge on the city of Midian to steal the heart of a saint and punish a tyrant.What comes out of the carnage is so much more--a conflict between gods that could decide the fate of every thief in the worlds.
