About this listen

The Inheritance Games meets Ocean’s Eleven in this cinematic heist thriller where a cutthroat competition brings together the world’s best thieves and one thief is playing for the highest stakes of all: her mother's life.

At only seventeen years old, Ross Quest is already a master thief, especially adept at escape plans. Until her plan to run away from her legendary family of thieves takes an unexpected turn, leaving her mother’s life hanging in the balance.

In a desperate bid, she enters the Thieves’ Gambit, a series of dangerous, international heists where killing the competition isn’t exactly off limits, but the grand prize is a wish for anything in the world—a wish that could save her mom. When she learns two of her competitors include her childhood nemesis and a handsome, smooth-talking guy who might also want to steal her heart, winning the Gambit becomes trickier than she imagined.

Ross tries her best to stick to the family creed: trust no one whose last name isn’t Quest. But with the stakes this high, Ross will have to decide who to con and who to trust before time runs out. After all, only one of them can win.

Critic reviews

An Amazon Best Book of the Month – October 2023
A September/October 2023 Kids’ Indie Next List pick!

"Listeners will feel all the action and angst of this young adult novel, narrated spectacularly by Jade Wheeler.... Wheeler captures the danger of each situation in Ross's wry, smart, exasperated tones. Her transitions between a lost child and a sly thief are perfect, drawing listeners into this world and making them question whom they can trust. Hint: no one." (AudioFile)

“A propulsive, high-octane thriller that kept me guessing until the very end. Full of breathtaking heists, complex relationships, high-stakes tension, and characters I would follow anywhere, Thieves’ Gambit gripped me from the first page, and never let go. You won’t want to stop reading.”—Alex Aster, #1 New York Times best selling author of Lightlark

“A fast-paced story about a cutthroat competition that brings together the world’s best thieves to compete for the chance to earn a wish that could change the world, Thieves Gambit also features a fabulous, easy-to-root-for heroine at its center."—Paste Magazine

“The ultimate competition between thieves tests friendships and family ties…the pacing is fast, and readers will experience the best kind of whiplash as the story moves from one heist to the next. The characters are also fully realized, and it’s impossible not to root for Ross as she tries to figure out who she’s meant to be. A fast-paced roller coaster of a read.”—Kirkus

What the he**…

**spoiler comments**

Okay, so I enjoyed all the twists and turns in this book/game, but the ending, really!! I finished the book and felt totally empty, betrayal at the highest level. I would have hated to do it but, even though she was my mother, I’d have told her “you’re dead to me”. How could you ever trusted her again. What a cruel mother, back then and now. But to have that part of the story omitted and never to develop is a very big bummer. So read at your own discretion!

Fun but Predictable

This story was fast-paced and fun. However many of the “twists” you could see from a mile away.
