Synopsis

For as long as she can remember, Katarina has been a part of the family business thieving. When Kat tries to leave “the life” for a normal life, her old friend Hale conspires to bring her back into the fold. Why? A mobster’s art collection has been stolen, and Kat’s father is the only suspect. Caught between Interpol and a far more deadly enemy, Kat’s dad needs her help.

The only solution is to find the paintings and steal them back. Kat’s got two weeks, a teenage crew, and hopefully enough talent to pull off the biggest heist in her family’s history and, with any luck, steal her life back along the way.

From AudioFile:

Carter, author of the fabulous Gallagher Girl spy series, strikes gold again with this sophisticated young-adult mash-up of OCEAN'S ELEVEN and THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR. Narrator Angela Dawe does the story full justice, delivering a stylish performance with panache and a soupçon of humor. Katarina is trying to get out of the family business--she's an up-and-comer in a long line of exceptional art thieves--by getting herself into prep school. But she gets pulled back into her criminal life when her dad is accused of a major heist from a major bad guy. Kat assembles her crew and starts planning the most risky job of her career. Dawe engages listeners with a feather-light performance expertly suited to this classy story. D.G. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
