Scoundrel by nature and master thief by trade, Mouse is the best there is. Sure, his methods may not make him many friends, but he works best alone anyway. And he has never failed a job.
But that could change.
When a stranger with a hefty bag of gold seduces him to take on a task, Mouse knows he'll regret it. The job? Free Lord Garron, the son of a powerful duke arrested on trumped up charges in a rival duchy. Mouse doesn't do rescue missions. He's no altruistic hero, and something about the job reeks. But he cannot turn his back on that much coin - enough to buy a king's pardon for the murder charge hanging over his head.
Getting Garron out of his tower prison is the easy part. Now, they must escape an army of guardsmen, a walled keep and a city on lockdown, and a ruthless mage using her power to track them. Making matters worse, Mouse is distracted by Garron's charm and unyielding integrity. Falling for a client can lead to mistakes. Falling for a nobleman can lead to disaster. But Mouse is unprepared for the dangers behind the plot to make Lord Garron disappear.

Mouse ist ein typischer Dieb mit dunkler Vergangenheit, er plant viel und der Twist am Ende zeigt, dass er trotzdem nicht unfehlbar ist.
Garren ist ein Adliger mit einem guten Herz, der es sich nicht nehmen lässt, Mouse zu sagen, wenn er sich dämlich benimmt.
Zwar lässt die Handlung kein Klischee aus (ehrlich, was hätte denn passieren sollen, wenn die zwei sich in einer dunklen Kammer vor den Wachen verstecken und jemand hineinlugt, also echt jetzt), aber das tut dem Hörvergnügen keinen Abbruch. Es war spannend zu sehen, wer letztlich wofür verantwortlich war.
Der Sprecher hat seine Sache jedenfalls großartig gemacht. Alleine die Unterschiede in der Sprechweise der beiden Charaktere ist hervorragend hervorgehoben, aber er trifft auch die Persönlichkeiten ausgezeichnet.
Alles in allem ein großer Spaß, vielleicht nicht gerade Weltliteratur, aber eine schöne Liebesgeschichte.
Großartige Geschichte!
