A slick, twisty YA page-turner about the daughter of a con artist who is taken hostage in a bank heist.



Nora O’Malley’s been a lot of girls. As the daughter of a con-artist who targets criminal men, she grew up as her mother’s protégé. But when mom fell for the mark instead of conning him, Nora pulled the ultimate con: escape.



For five years Nora’s been playing at normal. But she needs to dust off the skills she ditched because she has three problems:



#1: Her ex walked in on her with her girlfriend. Even though they’re all friends, Wes didn’t know about her and Iris.


#2: The morning after Wes finds them kissing, they all have to meet to deposit the fundraiser money they raised at the bank. It’s a nightmare that goes from awkward to deadly, because:


#3: Right after they enter bank, two guys start robbing it.



The bank robbers may be trouble, but Nora’s something else entirely. They have no idea who they’re really holding hostage…
