The Dali Deception
Summary
Dark, funny, effortlessly cool, and utterly thrilling. Join Violet Winters as she pulls the heist of her life. Will she succeed, or will she end up dead? For one-woman crime wave Violet Winters, stealing is as natural as breathing. When she’s offered the heist of a lifetime, she barely hesitates before agreeing. Unfortunately, taking this job means returning to the city she once called home. And Kilchester is a city so rotten, it hasn’t just spoiled the whole barrel, it’s turned the contents to cider and sold it to schoolchildren. Which can mean only one thing - a smorgasbord of trouble. Violet’s plan to steal a priceless masterpiece is, in her own words, "a masterpiece", but can her crack team of misfits and ne’er-do-wells use their diversely nefarious skills to bag the booty before the wheels come off? Will they fall victim to Kilchester’s finest vertically challenged psychopath, Violet’s vengeful yet strangely magnetic ex-lover, or just the general human cack-handedness that accompanies all truly brilliant plans? Eat. Sleep. Steal. Repeat. Slick, funny, and surreal, this fast-paced thriller will grab you by the scruff of the neck and hurl you into a criminal world like no other.
