Any Thief class will do, it depends on what you´re after:

Swashbuckler: Fighter/Thief-like character, can´t backstab
Assassin: Exactly what it sound like. Good at backstabbing.
Bounty Hunter: If you love those trap.

Personally I would go for any of the thief kits dualled to either a Fighter or a Mage as a single class Thief isn´t that useful in ToB. After a while you have enough in thief skills so additional skillpoint is almost pointless, this is where you should dual-class. A Fighter/Thief make an excellent backstabber and A Thief/Mage, well they can do what the Thief can do plus spellcasting.
A Kensai dualled to Thief is also good as well as a multclass variation of any of the above.

If you wanna play evil, consider taking Edwin with you. The only thing your little team is missing is a Mage.

Edit: Kensai/Thief can only be dual-class not multi-class.
