About this audiobook
In tenth-century Transoxiana, three young people disappear and an investigator known as the Master of Traces is called to follow what their abductors have left behind: a cut tether, the provenance of a horse, a keeper’s memory, an unusual payment, and a familiar hand upon a document.
His pursuit carries him from the markets and remount stations of Chāch into mountain passes and the Qarluq borderlands, through a world where merchants, officials, soldiers and local rulers each possess only part of the truth. The Master of Traces is a literary historical mystery set in medieval Central Asia—a story of evidence, authority, faith and the fragile marks by which the truth can still be recovered.
