description: In Old Earths penultimate age master criminal Luff Imbry has a good thing going: forging the jewelry of dead aristocrats who thought they were going to be interred wearing their best finery so that a mortician accomplice can make the switch just before the burial.But things go wrong and Imbry is squeezed between: an aristocrat who means to use a mindcontrolling mollusc to enslave the corpulent forger; and the notorious Green Circle Gang who come in large numbers and heavily armed with a tendency to be terribly single-minded.To get out from under Imbry must travel across the Ten Thousand Worlds and confront a sinister offworlder who is reviving mysterious powers from a long-forgotten aeon when the universe was ruled by magic.
