Assassin's Gambit: The Hearts And Thrones Series - Plot & Excerpts
As a child, she had often done this, stared at the cracks in the wall and made up stories about them, imagining them to be animals and people and places. But those were different cracks, in a different location. The enclave had been in this cave for only a couple of years, and she’d spent most of that time on the Caturanga circuit.
