Publisher's summary

A cursed artifact. A violent crime syndicate. A thief in over his head....

Salvatori Lorenzo seeks to make his place in the world, but first, he must survive the mean streets of Dijvois. In a city run by gangsters, a life of crime is nothing short of ordinary, especially for a thief living in Low Town.

Opportunity comes knocking after Sal is tasked with the theft of a magical locket. When the heist of the century goes awry, fingers are pointed in the hunt for a rat within the crew, but once bodies begin to drop, it's left to Sal to find the killer, before he finds himself the next victim.

Buy the exciting Grimdark fantasy The Hand That Takes, Fall of the Coward, book one. The perfect novel for fans of Scott Lynch, Robin Hobb, and Patrick Rothfuss.

Gritty and Suspenceful

A great adult fantasy. Action, mystery, romance, with some magic woven in. The narrator was excellent, bringing the individual characters to life. Highly recommended for any lover of the fantasy genre.
