A great heist novel, and the most cinematic book I've ever read. Tales of found family, enemies to lovers, and healing and maneuvering through traumatic pasts abound. All told through five of the six main characters perspectives.

This was so fun to read! Being back in the Grishaverse was a blast, with a new set of characters that are each so intriguing but a as crew absolutely unstoppable. I loved the little hints at characters we've met in the "Shadow & Bone" Trilogy. The story kept me on the edge of my seat, questioning at every turn whether they'll make it or not. I cannot wait to continue with "Crooked Kingdom" to see hiw the Crows' story continues.
