Part of the Harpers
Takes place in 1361 DR

From Cormyr to Waterdeep, Harpers are being murdered. The trail leads to the half-elf Arilyn Moonblade, one of the two best assassins in the Realms. Yet Arilyn herself is tormented by the secrets of her past, torn by her dual heritage, and tantalized by the handsome Danilo Thann, who offers her friendship - and more.

Haunted by strange dreams and stalked by shadows, Arilyn must uncover the ancient secret of her sword's power in order to find and face the assassin who seems bent on destroying the Harpers forever.
