Publisher's blurb:
In every adventurer's life there is a time when they find themselves short of coin to finance their next expedition. Of course, the successful ones eventually grow rich and make a profit from their ventures but the unsuccessful ones die trying. Who then would lend money to such individuals when their death is ass likely, if not more so, as their making good on tier loans? Why money lenders, of course, people like Malbecco who have high-interest rates and somewhat dubious business practices. Of course, it isn't just adventurers that the loan-shark lends money to. He specialises in 'high risk' loans, but when you borrow money form Malbecco the risk is all yours because the only way to avoid paying him back both the loan and the scandalous interest he charges is to die trying. No one wants a visit from his boys.
