The Rogue (The Traitor Spy Trilogy #2) by Trudi Canavan

Living among the Sachakan rebels, Lorkin does his best to learn about them and their unique magic. But the Traitors are reluctant to trade their secrets for the Healing they so desperately want, and while Lorkin assumes they fear revealing their existence to the world, there are hints that they have bigger plans. 

Meanwhile, Sonea searches for the rogue, knowing that Cery cannot avoid assassination for ever, but the rogue's influence over the city's underworld is far greater than she feared. His only weakness is the loss of his mother, now locked away in the Lookout.

In Sachaka, Lord Dannyl has lost the respect of the Sachakan elite for allowing Lorkin to join the Traitors. The Ashaki's attention has shifted, instead, to the new Elyne Ambassador -- a man Dannyl knows all too well.

And in the University, two female novices are about to remind the Guild that sometimes their greatest enemy is found within . . .
