What Is Three Thieves

Three Thieves centers on a 14-year-old acrobat named Dessa, who has been searching for her twin brother since he was snatched away when they were kids. She's since joined a traveling circus, but things are pretty desparte these days, and that's led to Dessa joining up with the juggler Topper and the strongman Fisk to rob the royal treasury. Will this lead them to her brother? Time will tell, but it's certainy going to make thigns entertaining to say the least. You can find the official description below.

"As an acrobat in a traveling circus, 14-year-old orphan Dessa Redd flies through the air with ease. Still, she is weighed down by troubling memories. But when her ragtag circus troupe pulls into the city of Kingsbridge, Dessa feels a tickle of hope. Maybe here in the royal city she will finally find her twin brother – or the mysterious man who snatched him away when they were just children.

Meanwhile, Topper, the circus juggler, recruits Dessa and the circus strongman, Fisk, for the job of robbing the royal treasury. Hungry and desperate, both agree, setting off a series of adventures that will take the three thieves from one end of the world to the other in search of Dessa's long-lost brother."
