Counterfeit Yabit ~ The evil General Lucian Ess and his diminutive little chief of staff, Tiny, are at it again in a small community where Tiny has enlisted an unlikely pair of elderly siblings in his age old vendetta against Yabit. The ever du-plicitous little demon has used a cunningly crafted stunningly creative package of old lies and half-truths to convince the two to abandon an unfinished palace assignment, and the siblings are now unwittingly working for him.
Spearheading a rescue operation code named Silent Shadow, Yabit has been dispatched from the palace to do something about it, but her arrival does not go unnoticed by the enemy troops. She will have to navigate her way through a dark labyrinth of intertwining plots and counterplots as the rebellious exiled general harnesses the media and public opinion to make her work ever more difficult by casting her as everything from an impotent stuffed toy, to an internationally conceived electronic robot spy, to a recently arrived alien being from an unidentified solar system.
Join Yabit as she finds herself in a life and death struggle battling pride, ignorance and a dangerous, often clueless obstinacy in the very people she has been sent to help.
