The Thieves of Legend
(2011)(The fourth book in the Michael St. Pierre series)
A novel by Richard Doetsch
The next ingenious thriller in the Thieves series after The Thieves of Darkness - reformed thief Michael St. Pierre and his crew must steal two artifacts that once combined, hold the answer to one of history's greatest mysteries.
In a world of balance, in a world of dark and light, where East meets West, a horrific act of violence propels former thief Michael St. Pierre into a mystery that began five hundred years ago.
Michael and his ex-girlfriend KC Ryan are blackmailed by a U.S. Army colonel to travel to opposite ends of China, each responsible for stealing a piece of an ancient puzzle: a diary and a compass. With their lives depending on each other's success, they face off against the complex underworld of the Chinese triads, a twisted female assassin, and a madman whose only desire is to possess the secrets held within the pages of the diary - knowledge that would give him enormous power and lead to the downfall of nations.
Moving from the casinos of Macau to its dangerous backstreets; from the palace at the heart of China's Forbidden City to the medieval castles of Spain; from the seaside mansions along the Amalfi Coast to an uncharted Pacific island, Michael is in a race against time. He has less than five days to uncover a 500-year-old mystery and save KC from certain death.
