The Veiled Dragon

The Veiled Dragon, by Troy Denning, is the twelfth book in The Harpers series.

"The Bedine witch Ruha has left the parched sea of Anauroch on her quest to become a Harper. That quest takes her to Elversult, where she must prove herself by discovering who has poisoned Lady Yanseldara. Simple enough. Find the poison and track the poisoner.

Simple&hellip; until the Cult of the Dragon, a Shou Prince, an oriental merchant, and an ancient dracolich get involved.

As Ruha soon discovers, life is never simple for a Harper, and poisoner's plots hold more treacherous twists than the tail of a Shou dragon."

Summary
After a failed mission in Voonlar, the newly-recruited agent of the Harpers named Ruha booked passage across the Dragonmere aboard the Storm Sprite, the ship of Captain Fowler. When they encountering a Shou caraval called the Ginger Lady being attacked at sea by a black dragon, Ruha, Fowler and the crew of the Storm Sprite interceded and defeated the great beast, losing their own ship in the process. Ruha, Fowler and one other passenger aboard the Sprite were rescued from the water by Minister Hsien Han Liu aboard the Ginger Lady and taken to the village of Pros, so that Ruha could still meet with her contact in the Harpers. While managing to evade the hostilities of the Cult of the Dragon, Ruha managed to secure a meeting with Vaerana Hawklyn, Lady Constable of Elversult and hear of the city's missing Lady Lord, Yanseldara. Ruha was tasked with venturing into the local Shou embassy known as the Ginger Palace and uncover the whereabouts of the Lady Lord's staff.
