The legend of Broken / Caleb Carr.
"Some years ago, a remarkable manuscript long rumored to exist was discovered: The Legend of Broken.

And Keera, a gifted female tracker of the Bane tribe, embarks on a perilous journey to save her people, enlisting the aid of the notorious and brilliant philosopher Caliphes
