The Pithdai Gate (A Senserte Caper) (Volume 1) Matthew Schick 1st edition

Swashbuckling! Museum heists! Hot air balloons! Lake monsters!

The crown prince of Pithdai has been kidnapped, and the ransom is a trove of magical paintings ? any one of which could destroy the fragile political and cultural balance of the nascent Flecterran Union.

Luckily, the king?s daughter, Arrina, leads the indefatigable Senserte ? the Eyes of Justice, who are traveling players by day and ruthless crime-fighters by night.

The Senserte must orchestrate a plan to make the dangerous exchange to save the prince and bring the kidnappers to justice. But it?s hard to plan for everything. Territorial air elementals, voracious lake monsters, and a rainforest of living nightmares are all in a day?s work, but this caper has a catch: Arrina's brother might not want to be rescued.
