Owl and the Tiger Thieves (The Adventures of Owl Book 4)
The Silk Road was an ancient trade route paved with fortunes and tears in equal measure - the tears part mostly from the very distinct chance of being gutted by an opportunistic supernatural lying in wait.
And somewhere amongst the trade cities lost to the ages the Tiger Thieves, assassins and thieves who once guarded the Silk Road against the supernatural monsters that preyed on ancient caravans, still hide.
Shame no one has seen one of them in over five hundred years, since they're the only ones who might be able help Owl stop the reign of Electric Samurai and the descent of the world into supernatural chaos in all its eviscerating glory.
From a Peruvian jail to Venice and all the way to Timbuktu, Owl searches for The Tiger Thieves in the hopes of convincing them to help her - all while fetching artifacts and weapons for Mr Kurosawa's brewing supernatural war. Considering friendly and diplomatic negotiations aren't exactly Owl's strong suit she has her work cut out for her this time ...And her companion on this adventure leaves a lot to be desired and little to trust.
Poking a tiger is never a good idea and tangling with the ancient assassins will take everything Owl has - and force her to decide whether she's a wayward archaeologist or just another cold-hearted thief.

Once Connected
Once upon a time, there lived a poor little girl in the dirty streets of the human world. With her parents gone and her having to survive alone, she became strong and stiff. As the little girl grew older, she learned dark secret of heart-break, forever sealing her heart in a wall of steel. From that day forward she decided never to want to love again. With her heart set, she became one of the best thieves around, cold-hearted and smart. She went by the code name "Nightstrike". Nobody knew who this thief was, or how to stop them. She was as fast as lightning and left without a trace when morning came. However, one day she was finally caged. Her jail was those crystal green eyes and light blonde hair. With one flash of that dazzling smile she bowed down, her steel heart broken by the man. The man was captivated by this poor little thief and his heart fell for her.

where the thorns grow
WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE IS INVITED STRAIGHT INTO THE HEART OF YOUR HOUSE? Seven years ago, Rhysa Jiang ran. She buried her past, chose to start over from a clean slate. She became a near legend, the only female Iron Wolf, deciding to become something new. They've hunted her down ever since, and until now she'd managed to evade their search. But now they've been invited to Sai. The Scarlet Palace. Her only home, her safe haven. And Rhysa has a suspicious feeling she's not going to be able to escape the Falcons' grasp this time. After all, she's a deserter, and those pay in blood around here. Dominic Lang had learnt long ago that Rhysa's past was something that shouldn't be dug up. Sure, he had his suspicions, but after being partners for six years, you learnt to trust someone. And if there was one thing he knew about Rhys, it was that the girl was fearless. So her sudden terror makes no sense. Her sudden caution, her sudden reluctance to even show her face in public is completely baffling. And he'll get to the bottom of this. Because Rhysa Jiang had been hiding the entirety of herself from him for too long, because there was nothing he loved more than a good mystery and challenge, and Rhys might just be the biggest one of all. It was just what friends do. (book #1 of 4 in the court of bones series, the third instalment in the silk and steel chronicles can be read as a stand-alone)Concluida
