The Big Score
Description
A hunt across the world and through the Wild, with more at stake than the hunters realise.
Jayas Zrei's last throw of the dice lost him everything. Everything except his wits, his skills and one companion in adversity. What else to do but try again, double or nothing, death or fortune? Surely luck will favour him this time. The big score has to be out there somewhere.
Tol Henze finds people who do not want to be found, and someone will pay her a lot to find Jayas Zrei. The trail will be long and take her to strange places, but Jayas could be Tol's big score.
A fourth Tale of the Wild, following on from The Servant's Story. Sometimes a quest is about finding what you really want.

Person
P Thomson lives in Canberra, which most people mistake for the capital of Australia, and passes the time writing and telling stories to children. Authors always mention pets, so they have one dog and at least two possums. The books started with 'what would a world with sensible magic look like?' and went on from there - to lawyers dealing with magicians and trainee spies and sensible middle-aged ladies sorting out the uncanny.
