I love this book and it deserves a prominent place on the bookshelf. Arabessa is the last of the Mousai trio to have her own story told, and her romance with Zimri is so spicy with just the right amount of 'will they, won't they.' The obsession with each other and the give and take makes for an incredible page turner, and the adventure of the story weaves through, spectacularly.

Book review:
Arabessa Bassette is the leader of the Mousai trio, performing deadly acts for the people of the Thief Kingdom as a mysterious and masked violinist. The Thief King pulls her into a dangerous competition, with the promise of great power, but with great sacrifice. Her relationship with Zimri D'Enieu is a true force and a great love, but with others in play for the most powerful roles in the kingdom, they will need to confront their feelings for each other as their love is tested repeatedly.
