<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Starting a new life on the straight and narrow by buying themselves a shop, the Rynax brothers fall back on their old skills and old friends after the Holver Alley Fire incinerates their plans. They lead their crew of amateurs and washouts to take down those responsible for the fire no matter what the cost.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The exciting debut to Marshall Ryan Maresca's Streets of Maradaine series, blending fast-paced heists with epic and urban fantasy across interconnected series of novels</b> <p/>The Rynax brothers had gone legit after Asti Rynax's service in Druth Intelligence had shattered his nerves, and marriage and fatherhood convinced Verci Rynax to leave his life of thievery. They settled back in their old neighborhood in West Maradaine and bought themselves a shop, eager for a simple, honest life. <p/>Then the Holver Alley Fire incinerated their plans. With no home, no shop, and no honest income--and saddled with a looming debt--they fall back on their old skills and old friends. <p/>With a crew of other fire victims, Asti and Verci plan a simple carriage heist, but the job spirals out of control as they learn that the fire was no accident. Lives in Holver Alley were destroyed out of a sadistic scheme to buy the land. <p/>Smoldering for revenge, burdened with Asti's crumbling sanity, the brothers and their crew of amateurs and washouts swear to take down those responsible for the fire, no matter the cost.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Praise for the Maradaine universe: <p/>"Maresca's debut is <b>smart, fast, and engaging fantasy crime</b> in the mold of Brent Weeks and Harry Harrison.
