Plot Summary

Katarina Bishop has grown up in a family full of thieves and has been expected to continue the tradition. At fifteen years old, she conned her way into boarding school and then was kicked out after being blamed for a crime involving a display of the headmaster's car on a fountain. However, it was Kat's cousin, Gabrielle, who did this because of influence by Arturo Taccone, the man who falsely blames Kat's dad for stealing his five precious paintings. A trip to Paris gives Kat the opportunity to lie to the police enough to get her father temporarily in prison to keep him safely out of Taccone's reach. Kat's Uncle Eddie refuses to let Kat become involved with Arturo Taccone, saying that he is too dangerous, but with the help of a few of her friends, she manages to learn that the paintings are hidden inside the Henley and are not legally Arturo Taccone's, but were stolen by the Nazi's. Kat and her team devise a plan to get the paintings back to Arturo Taccone before he kills Kat's father. In this high-risk heist, Kat proves to be one of the best thieves in history.
