I enjoyed how every character has a significant role in the heists, and they all come up with the schemes together. What I especially appreciated about her character is the fact that she understands that she can’t do her job on her own, so she forms an epic squad. She is brave and clever, and she is good at working on a deadline. The books are suspenseful and action-packed, but are also lots of fun. I have always been a fan of heist stories, so the Heist Society series is just what I’ve been looking for. What is interesting about these books is the fact that they are actually based on real events, like the Nazis stealing paintings. The heists are so well planned, and every single one is logical. It follows a group of teenagers who execute heists to re-steal valuables that have been stolen. Series Review: Heist Society by Ally Carter So what if it's a spectacularly impossible job? She's got two weeks, a teenage crew, and hopefully just enough talent to pull off the biggest heist in her family's history-and, with any luck, steal her life back along the way.

Caught between Interpol and a far more deadly enemy, Kat’s dad needs her help.įor Kat, there is only one solution: track down the paintings and steal them back. Only a master thief could have pulled this job, and Kat's father isn't just on the suspect list, he is the list. But he has a good reason: a powerful mobster has been robbed of his priceless art collection and wants to retrieve it. Soon, Kat's friend and former co-conspirator, Hale, appears out of nowhere to bring Kat back into the world she tried so hard to escape. Unfortunately, leaving “the life” for a normal life proves harder than she’d expected. When Kat turned fifteen, she planned a con of her own-scamming her way into the best boarding school in the country, determined to leave the family business behind. For her seventh birthday, Katarina and her Uncle Eddie traveled to Austria…to steal the crown jewels. When Katarina Bishop was three, her parents took her on a trip to the Louvre…to case it.
