Description: Nicolas Valiarde is a passionate, embittered nobleman with an enigmatic past. Consumed by thoughts of vengeance, he is consoled only by the love of the beautiful, dangerous Madeleine. He is also the greatest thief in all of Ile-Rien, a land where magic works and ghosts and demons exist alongside the gaslight and the locomotive. When Nicholas and his band of thieves attempt a heist from a Ducal palace, they discover that someone has beaten them to the treasure. For an ancient legend is waking, and evil stalks the city of Vienne. As the dead begin to rise, gargoyles come to life, and monstrous creatures walk the night, Nicholas must evade the police on his trail and get to the bottom of a tangled conspiracy before it costs him his reputation and his life -- and the world its peace.
