Meet Kat, a cleverly believable fifteen-year-old sleuth in a cast of sassy characters on a mission to save Kat’s dad from a dark enemy with a bad reputation. As the daughter of a professional thief, Kat has always been his assistant by necessity, not by choice. Then there’s Hale, Kat’s gorgeous guy friend and willing accomplice. Although Kat’s left the family business once and for all, Hale’s begging her back into it and she’s in over her head. As she assembles her own group of teenage partners in crime while running around the globe, you will feel you are right along with her. In a witty escapade that cannot be put down, there were no wasteful words — a brilliant adventure with just the right amount of love and intrigue. Since I enjoyed Heist Society so much, I will definitely be looking for more from this ingenious author, Ally Carter!

Content Analysis:
A refreshingly clean, enjoyable read. Nothing much to complain about, but if I must be picky, there is one character who is noted for her ample chest, long legs and short skirts. Also a brief question of male nudity, although it doesn’t turn out to be actual nudity. Another character is noted to have an ample chest in quite a few instances, although not in an overly sexual way.
