Vienna Becker might be the world's most reluctant jewel thief.
After years of high-stakes diamond heists, she's ready to walk away. But when the exchange on her final job goes belly-up and her partner-in-crime, Scarlett, vanishes without a trace, Vienna is forced back into the game.
All she has is a chilling note: steal an object-no one knows what or where-or Scarlett's life is at stake.
With no idea where to start, Vienna turns to her street-smart hacker friend, Nyx. And then there's Henry. The bumbling (and suspiciously handsome) new neighbour who keeps showing up at just the right time, always willing to lend a hand.
As the clues spiral into a dangerous web of secrets, murder that leads straight to the heart of the U.S. government, Vienna realises someone's playing a much bigger game-and she might be the pawn.
Because Henry isn't who he claims to be. And with a relentless FBI agent closing in, Vienna may finally be caught.
The stakes? Scarlett's life. Vienna's freedom. And a truth no one is ready for.

So when a new contract comes in and the mark is a certain gang leader that caught Scarlett's eye, she couldn't resist venturing deeper into a world filled with illegal activities on a personal mission to find out why he has a price on his head.
