The ''Trickster's Duet'' is the fourth sub-series in Tamora Pierce's ''Literature/TortallUniverse''. It follows Alianne (Aly), daughter of Sir Alanna the Lioness, as she stands on the brink of adulthood. Aly has little in common with her mother and much prefers her father's spywork, but both her parents refuse her numerous requests to become a field agent because it's such a dangerous job. After taking a trip to get away from the latest argument, Aly is captured by slavers and taken to the Copper Isles, one of Tortall's historic enemies. Turns out Kyprioth the TricksterGod has selected her as one of his instruments to take back the Isles from the white luarin conquerers who subjugated and enslaved the dark-skinned raka. Kyprioth makes a wager with Aly: if she can keep the children of the disgraced Balitang family alive through the summer, he will convince her father to let her spy. This is harder than it seems when one of them is Sarai, the "twice-royal" lady who is prophesied to become Queen and reclaim the Isles, but Aly agrees to become the god's [[TheChosenOne chosen]] and lend him her extensive skill in spying and deception.

* RightForTheWrongReasons: Sarai runs away fearing that she would end up being a puppet of the current regime. As the plot goes on it becomes increasingly obvious the rebellion would have made her nothing more then a figurehead if they had succeeded and got her on the throne.
