The city of Jewel is in peril once again, as it is held captive by the frightful Fugleman, his band of Blessed Guardians, and an army of merciless mercenaries. There's no doubt that Goldie and Toadspit want to get their city back, but how can a small group of children fight against such overwhelming forces of evil? And how, as Goldie is determined, can they avoid bloodshed in a war that will set thieves against soldiers, and trickery and deception against a mighty cannon that shoots cannonballs bent on destruction? As Toadspit fights the Fugleman in a duel to the death, Goldie must face her hardest task yet. If she is to save the city, she must walk the mysterious Beast Road, deep inside the Museum of Thieves. No one knows where it goes and no one has ever returned from it.

In the final volume of the trilogy, Goldie, Toadspit, and Bonnie return to the city of Jewel only to find that the villainous Fugleman has made himself Lord High Protector. If the plotting and characterization falter just a little bit, the book's minor stumbles are more than compensated for by an evocative setting, a unique cast of characters, and a satisfying conclusion.(Copyright 2013 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston.
