Katarina Bishop has worn a lot of labels in her short life:
Friend. Niece. Daughter. Thief. But for the last two months
she’s simply been known as the girl who ran the crew that
robbed the greatest museum in the world. That’s why Kat
isn’t surprised when she’s asked to steal the infamous
Cleopatra Emerald so it can be returned to its rightful
owners.
There are only three problems. First, the gem
hasn’t been seen in public in thirty years. Second, since
the fall of the Egyptian empire and the suicide of
Cleopatra, no one who holds the emerald keeps it for long —
and in Kat’s world, history almost always repeats itself.
But it’s the third problem that makes Kat’s crew the most
nervous, and that is . . . the emerald is cursed.
Kat
might be in way over her head, but she’s not going down
without a fight. After all, she has her best friend — the
gorgeous Hale — and the rest of her crew with her as they
chase the Cleopatra around the globe, dodging curses and
realizing that the same tricks and cons her family has used
for centuries are useless this time.
Which means, this
time, Katarina Bishop is making up her own rules.
