The Assassin's Ruse

di Scott Marlowe (Autore)

Umberland Press, 2026

When a thief’s heist collides with an assassin’s contract, the real deception begins. The Assassin Without a Name and Elizabeth West have never crossed paths before, and with good reason. Each prides themselves on working alone. But when the proprietor of a vanishing curiosity shop hires them both to recover a stolen artifact, they have no choice but to work together. They’re criminals, not colleagues, Elizabeth tells the Nameless Assassin, so when they finish the job, they go their separate ways. The trail leads them from the city’s underbelly to a high-society gala, where trusting each other with their lives is the least of their problems. A mercenary turned acquisitions specialist named Varen Crost has the artifact, and he isn’t inclined to make their job easy. Getting close to Crost means posing as something they’re not. Surviving him means working together. And when the night is over, going their separate ways may prove harder than either expected. The Assassin’s Ruse is a standalone prequel to the Assassin Without a Name series.
