Myria Cadessa cracked the Elysius Vault. She was supposed to walk away the wealthiest thief in Carintheum. Instead, her master took everything and left her in a cell. Now she is out, and she wants it all back. Reassembling her scattered crew is the easy part. The harder part is outwitting the man who trained her, while the law closes in from behind. Harder still is figuring out what to do with the new ally who has attached himself to the job. His loyalties shift. His feelings for Myria shift too, and she does not have time for either problem. The plan is bigger than anything she has pulled before. It has to be. She is not just stealing back what was taken. She is settling a debt she owes her crew for the last job that fell apart. She let them down once. That fact sits in her chest like a stone. A Complement of Scoundrels moves through the criminal underworld of an empire where loyalty is a luxury and the rules belong to whoever cheats best. Myria is quick, angry, and funny, and she is going to need every bit of that to survive what comes next.
