From the bestselling author of the Mistborn trilogy and co-author of the final three books of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series comes the story of a rogue thief who may be the only hope for an empire's survival.
Shai is a Forger: a foreigner who can recreate any object by rewriting its history using magical abilities. Although she is sentenced to death for attempting to steal the emperor's scepter, she has one last chance to save herself. The emperor has just survived an assassination attempt, needs a new soul, and although he considers her ability as a Forger to be repulsive, her jailers turn to Shai for help.
With razor-sharp perception, Shai knows that her first priority is a perfect escape plan. In the meantime, her fate and the fate of the empire depend on completing an impossible task: is it possible to create a counterfeit soul so convincing that it is better than the real soul?
