Description

Parvana lives in the Common, a cramped, crumbling remnant of the once vast city known as the Citadel, guarded by mountainous Barriers raised by magic. For three thousand years the people of the Citadel have endured the Great Siege, and have lost control of more than half of the territory within the walls. Women have few rights and fewer choices in the Common, and without a male guardian they become even fewer. When Parvana found herself alone in the streets, prostitution seemed her only choice, for a girl without protection became the lawful prey of the druggers and slavers, whichever found her first. Instead Farah Ehsan, a thief under the protection of the Vahumisa Street Deathdealers, brought Parvana home and taught her to be a thief. Together they made a life that gave them a little independence.

Being a thief in the Common is no easy matter. The Deathdealers could turn on them at any moment, the priests of Rasham might take them for concubines, the slavers and druggers are still out there, and there's even a young man pining away for Parvana's love.

That young man invites Parvana and her friends to join him in an adventure that will make them all rich, and allow them not only the escape the Common, but the Citadel itself. Before they can start murder follows betrayal as Parvana tries to prove that she is more than just a common thief.
