Let's get one thing straight - Vanja Schmidt wasn't trying to start a cult.

A scrappy former maid and jewel thief must outwit gods, injustice, and her own past in this sequel to Little Thieves by Margaret Owen.

After taking down a corrupt margrave, breaking a deadly curse, and finding romance with the vexingly scrupulous junior prefect Emeric Conrad, Vanja had one great mystery left: her long-lost birth family . . . and whether they would welcome a thief. But in her search for an honest trade, she hit trouble and invented a god, the Scarlet Maiden, to scam her way out. Now that lie is growing out of control - especially when Emeric arrives to investigate and the Scarlet Maiden manifests to claim him as a virgin sacrifice.

For his final test to become a prefect, Emeric must determine whether Vanja is guilty of serious fraud or if the Scarlet Maiden - and her claim to him - is genuine. Meanwhile, Vanja is chasing an alternative sacrifice that could be their way out. The hunt leads her not only into the lairs of monsters and the paths of gods, but the ties of her past.

And with what should be the simplest way to save Emeric hanging over their heads, he and Vanja must face a more dangerous question: Is there a future for a thief and a prefect, and at what price?

Gorgeous prose, delicious magic
A lush and lively adventure replete with romance, revenge, and robbery
With Six of Crows and The Cruel Prince as readalikes, this will find an audience anywhere there are fantasy fans. Highly recommended and not to be missed
YA fantasy at its very best
One of the most exciting, exceptionally crafted fantasy debuts I've ever read. I did not want to leave this world! Absolutely breathtaking
Packed to the teeth with fresh worldbuilding and righteous fury . . . It's a ride that is wildly fun

Why are we in the year [2020s] still writing plots about virginity and losing it and it being something precious and worldchanging to lose? It gave me the ick how much importance the curse relies on if you had sex or not, it's toxic and puritanical. It does NOT change you on a metaphysical or spiritual level if you have sex or not and writing a plot around it in a series for YA that has been so openly featuring LGBT side characters... What are we doing here?! I even thought they already had sex in the first part too! I thought it was implied by him leaving hickeys in places where no gems had yet grown. I was not a fan of that entire plot point. But I guess I'm also not a teenager or sexually inexperienced.

Nice to see everyone again... But what is this plot?
