I'm pretty sure you have to be behind them....It is BACKstabbing, not FRONTstabbing.....
A handy thing to do is to get your mage to cast invisibility on your thief (or have a mage/thief) so you can have enough time (8 hours game time, I think) to get yourself into a perfect position.
Just watch out for those Static Charge spells the priests cast. My thief got fried, one time ages ago.....
Hope this helps,
Moiraine Sedai
