Perfect Scoundrels by Ally Carter - ESSENTIAL


Carter, Ally Perfect Scoundrels, 328 p. Disney Hyperion, 2013.  $18.  Violence: PG.  

W.W. Hale has been called back to the family home upon the death of his grandmother, leaving Kat literally hanging from a wire.  When Kat goes to pay her condolences, she finds a Hale much altered and a family full of secrets.  Somewhere in here is a con – Kat has a nose for these things – but finding out the truth from a bunch of blue bloods may be more difficult and dangerous than stealing from cold-hearted criminals.  The game is on – no one con’s Kat’s friends and gets away with it.  

Excellent!  Rocking Heist Society adventure.  And anyone with a kindle should also go download Double Crossed, a free from Amazon Heist/Gallagher crossover novella – I really hope it signals a possible future for Kat and the Gallagher girls.
