Thieves' Guild Academy: Honor above profit. Skill above chance. Family above all.
The academy can make Senth invisible, but how can he hide his heart?
Since childhood, Senth trained in the bustling Thieves' Guild Academy. The young thief possesses a unique talent for stealth. Now he's preparing to embrace a new technology that promises to change his destiny. All his life, Senth struggled with the duality of his heritage. Half-human and half feline Kin, he faces scorn and prejudice every day. With the promise of invisibility, he envisions a future free from belligerent taunts and lingering shadows of self-doubt.
Amid the excitement of this new beginning, Senth's discovers a human half-brother, caught in the grim chains of a merciless slaver's grasp. This connection throws Senth into a whirlwind of emotions. As he prepares to step into the light of independence, the weight of an urgent need to save his brother crashes down on him.
The complex dynamics between the two brothers build, fraught with tension. Senth, although outwardly confident in his ability to navigate the twisted hallways of the Guild, feels pangs of guilt and responsibility prick at his heart. After years of feeling like he doesn't belong, he can finally claim the family he always longed for, even if the bond is anything but straightforward. His brother's anger and resentment serve as barriers that unravel any hope of easy reconciliation.
Senth's inner conflict mirrors the outer world he must navigate. He can move in the shadows, unseen and unheard, but the journey to unconditional love and acceptance seems impossible. While the world around him buzzes with scheming thieves and ambitious guild members, he wrestles with questions of loyalty and identity. How can he rescue a brother who sees him as an enemy? How can he prove his worth when so many have cast him aside?
Senth's quest for belonging resonates through this tale of forgiveness and the unbreakable ties that bind us all.
A found family sci-fi story set in the organized crime world of the Thieves' Guild Academy.

Tin Minute Book Reviews on Amazon wrote:Half-human/half-Kin master thief Senthys Antonello has grown up with a chip on his shoulder. He’s tired of being under-estimated due to his small stature. He winces every time his peers ridicule him for his part-feline heritage. And as much as he admires his adoptive father, the all-powerful Luc St. Cyr, he fears he can never win the approval of the stern and distant head of the Thieves’ Guild.
Dee S Knight on Amazon wrote:The heartwarming scenes between father and son were the best to me, although I can’t wait to see how the relationship between brothers pans out. It’s hard to pick a favorite because they are both so charming in their own way, but if pushed, I’d have to lean on Khyff. His backstory is much more tragic. I’m looking forward to what this author will do next.
(This book) introduces Senthys, Khyffen, and Luc Saint-Cyr, all wonderful characters in their own right but perfect together. The humor was wonderful, as was the emotion.
