A magically gifted con artist must gather her estranged mother's old crew for a once-in-a-lifetime heist, from the New York Times bestselling author of Stranger Suspicious Minds.
Dani Poissant is the daughter and former accomplice of the world's most famous art thief, as well as being an expert forger in her own right. The secret to their success? A little thing called magic, kept rigorously secret from the non-magical world. Danis mother possesses the power of persuasion, able to bend people to her will, whereas Dani has the ability to make any forgery she undertakes feel like the genuine article.
At seventeen, concerned about the corrupting influence of her mothers shadowy partner, Archer, Dani impulsively sold her mother out to the FBIan act she has always regretted. Ten years later, Archer seeks her out, asking her to steal a particular painting for him, since her mother's still in jail. In return, he will reconcile her with her mother and reunite her with her mothers old gangincluding her former best friend, Mia, and Elliott, the love of her life.
The problem is, its a nearly impossible jobeven with the magical talents of the people she once considered family backing her up. The painting is in the never-before-viewed private collection of deceased billionaire William Hackworthotherwise known as the Fortress of Art. Its a job that needs a year to plan, and Dani has just over one week. Worse, shes not exactly gotten a warm welcome from her former colleaguesespecially not from Elliott, who has grown from a weedy teen to a smoking-hot adult. And then there is the biggest puzzle of why Archer wants her to steal a portrait of himself, which clearly dates from the 1890s, instead of the much more valuable works by Vermeer or Rothko. Who is her mothers partner, really, and what does he want?
The more Dani learns, the more she understands she may be in way over her headand that there is far more at stake in this job than she ever realized.
