Six Ways to Rob the Alcazar

A retired thief pulled back for one last heist has to figure out who in her own crew is playing a different game.

• A slick heist thriller with a legendary crew reassembling
• One last score inside a fortress-turned-casino vault
• Double-crosses and a gala night that goes sideways fast

“Reyna Delacroix had turned down eleven jobs in the eight months since her last one went sideways badly enough to cost her a partner, a kneecap's worth of cartilage, and roughly a year of her life spent recovering in a rented room above a laundromat in a city she wouldn't name even under torture. The twelfth offer arrived on a Tuesday, folded into a napkin left under her coffee cup at the diner she ate breakfast at exactly because nobody who mattered ever thought to look for her there, and it was good enough — audacious enough, stupid enough, beautiful enough — that she read it twice before she let herself believe what it was actually proposing.”
