The Thieves of Darkness by Richard Doetsch

 

When Master-Thief, Michael St. Pierre finds that his friend Simon, is imprisoned in a secluded prison, sentenced to death, he drops everything to spring him and comes face to face with a woman who he has just recently fallen for. Is she a friend or foe? In a duel between thieves, Michael must steal certain artifacts that lead to an ancient temple where the fate of mankind lies in the balance.

This story is a roller coaster of thrills and action. If is my first by Doetsch and will not be my last. Don’t plan on getting anything done over the next few days as you are sucked into this grand adventure.
