About this story, author David Dalglish says, ""''Take You Home'' takes place in the vast city of Veldaren, the major story hub of my Shadowdance series. It also features the main protagonist of the series, Haern the Watcher. He''s a self-appointed guardian of the city that keeps an eye on the various thief guilds, ensuring they follow the rules he''s given them to keep the city in a state of delicate peace. He also tends to do some mercenary work on the side, so long as it isn''t too distasteful. For those curious, this story takes place between books three and four of that series.""
