Shadow, a light-hearted (and light-fingered) elvan thief, returns to her homeland after several centuries' absence only to find that a great human trade city has grown up next to the forest in which she was born.

Now the elves and the humans maintain an uneasy alliance, but when Shadow steals a magical bracelet, she finds herself caught in the middle of a plot that may tear the city - and the alliance - apart forever.
