Andorren (or Ren to the fine ladies he pursues) is a charming and affluent member of an elite circle. Born to a family of talented glass makers, he wants for nothing and enjoys all he pleases. He is accomplished in all he touches, but somehow, his life seems dull and underwhelming, and the spoiled young man longs for a life away from the trivial and tedious existence of the comfortable craftsman.
Sneaking away in the dead of night, never thinking farther than the next thrill, Ren stumbles upon the Family of Thieves, and is taken in by an elite crime guild that lives as a vibrant, corrupt court in the underbelly of the society he once belonged to. Soon, his clever tongue and crooked nose would earn him the fame and adventure he craves... But Ren has stumbled into a life of danger and deceit, and will soon discover the peril he's invited upon himself. Will the luck he's stolen himself be enough to survive in the twisted Family of Thieves?
