Born into the squalor of the largest and most affluent city in all of Dlorwyn, the young orphan Jasmine is forced to fend for herself in the only way she knows how - by stealing from those who are better off. And though her unusual blood gives her an appearance that is considered bizarre to most, that same blood has gifted her with many talents above and beyond the capabilities of most humans. It is through these talents that she survives the dangers of the streets and how, ultimately, she rises to become the best at her trade.
But the glory and riches of being the best roofrunner within the walled ghetto of the East-block do not provide the solution to every problem. As Jasmine makes her journey she must learn who she can and cannot trust, discover the importance of those closest to her and search deeper for the answers of who and what she truly is.
Joined by her protégé, a girl of eight whose sharp tongue and unruly demeanor are matched only by Jasmine’s own, and stalked from the shadows by a sorcerer lost in the throes of his own relentless power, the young rogue will find out that in order to be the best you must be clever, you must draw blood and you must make unwelcome sacrifices.
Grey Spaces, Book I: Walls of Stone begins Jasmine’s journey of self-discovery, a journey that will be continued throughout the next two books of the trilogy and hopefully into many more.
