With art museums, antique shops and lavishly furnished homes all around, there is no shortage of treasures to score.
But then, Cade steals something with more strings attached to it than he could ever imagine.
Led down a road with unexpected allies, intricate webs of deceit, and unknown threats, Cade and his friends have to be more clever than ever to come out on the other side unscathed. Secrets will demand to be revealed, loyalties will be tested, and Cade will be forced to confront a past that he desperately wishes to forget.
