Old Habits

A fortune in lost gems.A man on the run from his brothers.A dread secret in Castle Dornica.Stoce grew up alone on the tough streets of Farport to become an exceptional street thief, but nothing in his life has prepared him for this. Hired for a simple theft, Stoce is now on the run from The Brotherhood. Stalked by deadly assassins in a strange land, Stoce must face an archmage, soldiers, and a host of guards to find the gems he lost. But what treacherous plot is unfolding in the castle he searches, and how does the annoyingly noble paladin Judic fit into this conspiracy? Facing impossible odds, outmatched by dark magic and deadly traps, Stoce uses all of his considerable skill to search, to survive, and perhaps to find an even greater treasure.
