4-6Shield, Sword, and Crown series.
Charged by her former-outlaw-turned-military-commander mother with befriending Prince Edoran, Arisa finds in him an ally in her covert investigations into palace intrigue and the missing Sword of Waters. With Weasel (from Shield of Stars), the trio thwarts a treasonous plot--but Arisa's own loyalties are strained. A well-told tale with sympathetic characters and irresistible challenges.
