The Reluctant Blade - Gerrit Van Eck

nIs the greater good worth losing yourself for?n nn nForced to live in hiding from people who would seek to make her a living weapon, Serennia has learned the hard way that good things are temporary. When she flees her abusive household and strikes out on her own, she finds herself in a cruel, unforgiving city that would be happy to tear her apart. Knowing that safety comes in numbers, she throws her lot in with the Sparrows, an underground network of thieves whose doors are always open to the willing. But her abilities can't stay hidden forever, and when the truth comes out she'll find herself torn between staying true to how she was raised, or doing whatever it takes to make the city a better place.n
