This book follows Rosalyn Quest who is a 17 years old professional thief. After a job gone wrong, she must make up for her mistakes by joining the Thieves' Gambit, an international heist competition where the winner gets any one wish granted. 

This book is a little outside of my normal genres but I really enjoyed it. It felt like a teen Oceans 11. It was really fast paced and the twists kept things interesting. There is a little romance subplot that felt a little surface level, but maybe we will get more in book 2.
