The Best Thing You Can Steal

Meet master thief Gideon Sable and his misfit crew of magical con artists as they take on a daring supernatural heist.

Welcome to London, but not as you know it. A place where magic and miracles are everyday things, and the dark streets are full of very shadowy people. Among them, Gideon Sable.

Gideon Sable specializes in stealing the kind of things that can’t normally be stolen. A ghost’s clothes. A radio that lets you listen in on what the dead are saying. A photo from a country that never existed. Even his current identity.

Now Gideon has a plan: to break into the most secure treasure house in the world and steal something very valuable from a very nasty man.

To get past security, he’ll need a crew who can do the impossible:

The Damned—a seriously scary killer, who’s staring down the barrel of eternal damnation.

The Ghost—the undead spirit of an art forger who can pass through any locked door.

The Wild Card—a man who can see beyond the veil of the material world.

And Annie Anybody—the woman who can be anyone … and also Gideon’s ex-girlfriend.

Together, they’re going to pull off the heist of a lifetime. And if they’re lucky, they might not die trying …

The Best Thing You Can Steal is a fast-paced urban fantasy heist novel from New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green that is perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo’s Six of Crows and the C.K. McDonnell’s Stranger Times series.
