Six months have passed since Jaxter Grimjinx and his family of thieves fabricated a prophecy that unleashed chaos on the Five Provinces, only to save the day in the end. Now, the Grimjinxes have been trying their best to earn an honest living, which means only the occasional major heist or con. And the biggest worry on Jaxter's mind is whether his apprenticeship with the Dowager is really what he wants for his life. But things in the Five Provinces are about to get complicated.
The High Laird has been imprisoning members of the Sarosan race without so much as an explanation. Five mysterious magical artifacts have been stolen from the royal vaults. And most troubling of all, an infamous group of thieves known as the Shadowhands seeks the Grimjinxes' help when a number of their clan go missing. As the ancient par-Goblin proverb goes, "those who choose to see coincidence fail to see conspiracy."
In order to save his family and get to the heart of this mystery, Jaxter will have to team up with his former friend Maloch, who has some surprises of his own, and two Sarosan siblings who just want to rescue their parents. But when the conspiracy takes a shocking turn, the kids realize they may be in way over their heads. Because something is brewing in Vengekeep that has been covered up for over a thousand years.
