Taldara is a Pathfinder, a scholar—and a thief. Which of these roles define her is a vexing question. Luckily for her, she's too busy trying to stay alive to contemplate it. Caught between a Pathfinder mission to retrieve a long-lost journal from a dangerous and secretive dwarf, her friends' involvement with Riddleport's most dangerous gangs, and the insidious forces behind the pirate city's newest drug trade, Taldara will need to rely on all of her disparate skills in order to survive the night... From pulp fantasist Bill Ward comes a tale of mystery and danger, set in the award-winning world of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and originally published in the Shattered Star Adventure Path.
