📚 Book 1 of a completed 2-book series
In the glittering, morally gray city of Ketterdam, a criminal mastermind assembles an utterly irresistible crew of misfits—each with their own devastating skills, dark secrets, and reasons for wanting in on an impossible heist. What starts as a chance at unimaginable wealth becomes something far more dangerous when the stakes threaten not just their lives, but everything they've come to care about. With witty banter, genuine chemistry, and a plot that crackles with tension, this heist unfolds through the perspectives of six complex characters whose loyalties, vulnerabilities, and fierce devotion to each other will have you rooting for them at every turn. It's the kind of book that makes you fall in love with a found family of outlaws and leaves you desperate for more.
Reading soundtrack
Morally gray characters, shadowy heists, and slow-burn chemistry. Mix indie-alternative edge with orchestral fantasy atmospheres—think moody, clever, tense. Artists like The Midnight, Hozier, and Ólafur Arnalds. Witty banter energy meets dangerous stakes. Sweet romance undertones with dark, glittering swagger.
