Plot
Kaz Brekker, an infamous thief known as "Dirtyhands" to some in Kerch, is promised a very large sum of money to steal Bo Yul-Bayer, a scientist, from the Ice Court. However, the Ice Court is the most highly protected place in Fjerda, and Kaz can't infiltrate it by himself; he needs a crew. He recruits Inej Ghafa, a Suli acrobat turned Dregs spy; Jesper Fahey, a sharpshooter with a penchant for gambling; Nina Zenik, a Heartrender from the Ravkan Second Army; Matthias Helvar, a former Fjerdan Drüskelle thrown into Kerch jail; and Wylan van Eck, a merchant's son with some skill at demolition. The task isn't so easy however, as they're competing with at least three cities and one major gang for the prize, so in order to win they'll need to work together and trust in each other.
