From an author who delivers a whole new meaning to the term &;thriller&;&; (San Francisco Book Review): in the next rollicking adventure in the Thieves series reformed thief Michael St. Pierre and his crew steal two artifacts that hold the key to one of history&;s greatest mysteries.

A legendary puzzle. A lethal assassin. A life-or-death race against time . . . Master thief Michael St. Pierre returns&;in an epic adventure five hundred years in the making.

Framed for a murder he didn&;t commit, Michael St. Pierre is forced to reunite with his former love, KC Ryan, to complete two halves of a dangerous mission. Dispatched to the opposite ends of China, they must each steal a separate piece of an ancient puzzle&;a compass and diary that, according to legend, are the keys to untold power. If they succeed, their blackmailer will use them to seek bloodthirsty revenge against a ruthless crime lord. If they fail, a poisonous toxin will be unleashed upon the world. Either way, Michael and KC have five days to uncover a five-hundred-year-old mystery&;from the Forbidden City of China to the medieval castles of Spain to the mansions of the Amalfi Coast&;and every clue, every treasure, every moment they steal could be their last. . . .

Industry Reviews

"Richard Doetsch's "The Thieves of Legend "stole my breath with the sheer audacity of its storytelling, proving yet again that this series gets better with every installment. Bold, richly told, and rollicking with adventure, here is thriller that demands to be read in one tension-wrought sitting. Count me a fan for life!"--James Rollins
"Doetsch continues to demonstrate why he's one of the best thriller writers in the business.... The heroes and villains are all well-rounded, and the plot twists are exceptional. Another strong entry in Doetsch's Thieves series, following "The Thieves of Darkness" (2010).
"Doetsch steps up his game with his fourth thriller featuring ex-thief Michael St. Pierre.... Plenty of action blends with interesting history and criminal tradecraft for a satisfying read."
"The tension leaps off the pages in this classic, ticking-clock thriller. Watch out. You'll grip the pages so tight your knuckles will turn white." --Steve Berry
