In the city of Accanter, forgeries can cost lives.
Someone is faking the ruler's currency in her home city. And unless Thea can find out who is doing it, no one will be safe from the Archon's and the Ageless' wrath.
Thea just wants to do her job. Catch the criminals. Keep the people safe.
If only life was that simple.
Assigned to a new investigation, she has barely started her enquiry when Mage Niath appears, wanting her help at the one place in the city she does not want to go. The Citadel.
She wants to say no, but fake coins have been turning up and unless Thea can prove they had nothing to do with it, innocent people will be killed in the Ageless' quest for revenge.
