A Conspiracy of Kings The Fourth Book in the Queen's Thief Series
Eugenides has never stopped wondering what happened to his friend. Nor has the queen of Eddis, who once offered Sophos her hand. As time goes by, it becomes less and less certain that they will ever see their friend again. Across the small peninsula battles are fought, bribes are offered, and conspiracies are set in motion. Darkening the horizon, the Mede Empire threatens from across the sea. And Sophos, anonymous and alone, bides his time.
