Publisher's Synopsis
The Inheritance Games meets Ocean's Eleven in this cinematic heist thriller where a cutthroat competition brings together the world's best thieves and one thief is playing for the highest stakes of all: her parents' lives.
At only seventeen years old, Ross Quest is already a master thief, especially adept at escape plans. But escaping her family business-grand larceny-to attend college like a regular teen proves more difficult. Her future plans take an unexpected turn when she's invited to participate in the Thieves Gambit-a high-stakes competition where winner takes all. Ross isn't interested until a botched robbery aboard a yacht leaves her parents lives hanging in the balance. When no one else can help, the prize for winning the Gambit-a wish for anything in the world-becomes the only thing Ross has her sights set on.
Thrust back into the very world she was trying to abandon, Ross must find a way to outsmart the other players in a series of dangerous heists where killing the competition isn't exactly off limits. But when she learns two of her competitors include her childhood nemesis and a smooth-talking, good-looking boy who might also want to steal Ross's heart, winning the Gambit becomes trickier than she imagined.
Ross tries her best to stick to the family creed: trust no one whose last name isn't Quest, but this isn't a competition that Ross can win alone. Trusting the wrong person could mean the difference between her parents living or dying. In a race against time, Ross takes the biggest risk of all to win: trusting her own heart.
