註釋Rediscover the world of the Retrievers and the Cosa Nostradamus, in book 1 of the
popular series by Laura Anne Gilman.



It starts as a simple job—but simple jobs, when
you're dealing with the magical world, often end up anything but. As a Retriever, Wren
Valere specializes in finding things gone missing—and then bringing them back, no
questions asked. Normally her job is stimulating, challenging and only a little bit
dangerous. But every once in a while…



Case in point: A cornerstone containing a spell is
stolen and there's a magical complication. (Isn't there always?) Wren's unique abilities
aren't enough to lay this particular case to rest, so she turns to some friends: a demon
(minor), a mage who has lost his mind, and a few others, including Sergei, her business
partner (and maybe a bit more?).



Sometimes what a woman has to do to get the job done is enough to give even Wren nightmares…
