Behind the excitement and technological progress of Industrial-Revolution-era London, strange things have begun to happen. Members of the blue-blooded nobility have started going missing, important artifacts have been disappearing, and an ancient cult has stepped out of the shadows to make itself known to the rest of the world. When an elite religious order known only as "The Ravens" gets its hands on an ancient and powerful talisman, no one but the cult itself knows about its disappearance or the power it wields. Or so they think. Little do they know, a secret organization tasked with protecting the unsuspecting citizens of London has found out about the missing talisman and knows only too well the potential devastation of such an object. Because of this knowledge, they will stop at nothing to get the mystical artifact back into safe hands. That's where thief Jac Dupont comes in. A street-savvy orphan, Jac is the seventeen-year-old leader of a renowned band of thieves. Each member possesses a unique set of skills that allows them to collectively take on some of the most difficult heists of the century. There's not a single person involved in the black market who hasn't heard of the highly-skilled gang and its enigmatic leader. But there's one thing no one outside of the tight-knit group has ever figured out. "Jac" is short for Jacqueline.

⚔️This is an incomplete, unedited version of the story. I am in the process of finishing and editing this book that will be available on Amazon when it is complete. ✨ ⚠️Read at your own risk. Legends tell of fearsome beasts, dashing rouges, and hordes of gold. Stories that capture the imagination, of all who dare to read them. This one is no exception, but far more than what meets the eye. For deep within the streets and canals of the great trading city of Talvos. A prophecy will come to life, and change the fates of two young denizens of this fair city forever. While the nobles hide behind their walls and houses, while the merchants count their gold, and while the gangs of the city take refuge in their taverns, brothels, and boxing dens. All unaware of the chaos that shall ensue, in only a mere three days time. Their lives will lay on the shoulders of these two unlikely allies. Tara, a thief known for her cunning, grand escapes, and her reputation as a first rate mage. She has only one goal on her mind, survive the perils of the streets and keep from being tossed into a cell. Then there is Andreas, noble, sharp, a perfect weapon of the king as the tyrant's skilled assassin. A path he chose, to keep at bay the gilded cage that waits for him. Challenges that they will face, along with a pirate queen hunting for a nameless treasure, and a ghostly rouge stealing from the kingdom's elite. Look no further for a story where legends lurk in the shadows, and doors that lead to secrets untold. Where gods walk the earth while monsters haunt the seas.
