Tan Skulks is a thief, but now he's been asked to assassinate a king.
A brief stop in the city of Jingus becomes much more involved than Skulks had bargained for. An unexpected meeting with two men sends him on a dangerous mission - one that he can't possibly refuse and doesn't dare fail.
Wizards and demons are vying for control of the city and when everyone's trying to kill each other, it's not easy to decide who is friend and who is foe.
Fortunately, in a situation like this, there is always the opportunity for a man versed in the noble arts of thievery to abscond with a bulging sack of someone else's property.
All roads lead to the Queen's palace, where there's plenty of chance for adventure. Can Skulks once more save the day?
A Thief in the Palace is the fourth instalment in the exciting and humorous Wielders series.
