Or refuse, for that matter, according to the petty gangster sponsoring his seat at the table. Valen beats the man he was sent to play, and wins the most valuable secret ever staked in the history of the tournament.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow Valen and his motley crew are being hunted by thieves, gangsters, spies, and wizards, all with their own reasons for wanting what's in that envelope. It's a game of nations where Valen doesn't know all the rules or who all the players are, and cannot see all the moves. But he does know if the secret falls into the wrong hands, it could plunge the whole world into war.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eValen and his crew are on the run, trying to stay one step ahead of their pursuers. They navigate through a web of treachery and deception, using their skills and wits to outmaneuver their enemies. Along the way, they discover the true value of the secret they have inherited and the dangerous consequences of its misuse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the end, Valen and his crew must face their fears and make difficult choices to protect the secret and prevent it from falling into the wrong hands. They learn that sometimes, the greatest gamble is not the one you take, but the one you avoid.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 288g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 129 x 199 x 27 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781786186102\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alex Livingston","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44278203842810,"sku":"9781786186102","price":7.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1686328380157_book.jpg?v=1686654750","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-knave-of-secrets-9781786186102","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
