The Phantom Thief. The Telvana Mysteries, #3

A brutal murder, a missing divine artifact, and no good suspects-just another day for Aurora and Kho'Tuul. This time the two investigators aren't just separated, they're miles apart.  Aurora has to fulfill her duties as head of the ten cities council while they debate whether the monsters known as goblins have changed enough to be recognized by the ten cities.  Things get worse when an outland trader is murdered and the only suspect is a goblin. Meanwhile, Kho'Tuul gets called to investigate the theft of Peregrin's Bow, a holy artifact from the founding of the ten cities.  To make matters worse, the local guard precinct has been rocked by a corruption scandal that leaves them understaffed and Kho'Tuul with limited allies. Can the ten cities' premier private investigators solve the murder, find the bow, and protect the innocent?
