Perfect Scoundrels
By Ally Carter
Book 3 of 3 in the
Heist Society Series
Katarina Bishop and W.W. Hale the fifth were born to lead completely different lives: Kat comes from a long, proud line of loveable criminal masterminds, while Hale is the scion of one of the most seemingly perfect dynasties in the world. If their families have one thing in common, it's that they both know how to stay under the radar while getting-or stealing-whatever they want.
"With razor-sharp dialogue, twists and tight squeezes galore, and one quick-thinking heroine, Carter doesn't miss a step as she continues to entertain her numerous fans."
-Booklist
"With a smart and stealthy heroine who should appeal to Gallagher Girls fans, Carter's story is fast-paced and popcorn-ready. Readers will likely look forward to Kat's next adventure."
No matter the risk, the Bishops can always be counted on, but in Hale's family, all bets are off when money is on the line. When Hale unexpectedly inherits his grandmother's billion dollar corporation, he quickly learns that there's no place for Kat and their old heists in his new role. But Kat won't let him go that easily, especially after she gets tipped off that his grandmother's will might have been altered in an elaborate con to steal the company's fortune. So instead of being the heir-this time, Hale might be the mark.
Forced to keep a level head as she and her crew fight for one of their own, Kat comes up with an ambitious and far-reaching plan that only the Bishop family would dare attempt. To pull it off, Kat is prepared to do the impossible, but first, she has to decide if she's willing to save her boyfriend's company if it means losing the boy.

SOME SPOILERS: i read this book recently, and ally carter (whose books are mostly about spies) ALWAYS writes amazing books, in my opinion. "Perfect Scoundrels" is the best out of all of the heist society books. it's an interesting, fast-paced, romantically tragic and sad book wrapped with a ribbon of mystery and danger. i read this book on a plane and once i started it at the beginning of the 8-hour ride, i couldn't stop until i had finished it. for hardcore fans of ally carter, this book will NOT disappoint. i teared up when i read about the shattered remains of hale and kat's relationship, but loved every word of PS. One of Ally Carter's best books, personally.
