Description
Ro is one of North City’s best art thieves, working with her expert team of hackers to steal art from the rich. Pre-collapse tactile pieces, digital installations, she does it all. It’s a pretty good gig, and keeps her out of the crosshairs of her psychotic ex-boyfriend. She’s gotten to where she is by being cautious and not taking unnecessary risks.
When she’s offered a lucrative gig to break into the Scitek Headquarters, however, curiousity gets the best of her. Her ex-boyfriend works there, and she can’t help but wonder why her favourite painting is suddenly in his company’s possession. Even her team can’t convince her not to take this one on, and besides, it’ll make them filthy rich. What could go wrong?

The cover and plot immediately pulled me in and the story did not disappoint. This is a shorter book, so I finished it in one sitting and loved it.
I typically get annoyed with Artificial Intelligence references, but AI is a part of our reality unfortunately at this point and this book handled it really well. The story felt more real because AI wasn’t romanticized or glorified - it was just AI - kinda creepy, advanced, and usually the old methods work just as well lol.
You'll see what I mean when you read it. It was super refreshing and wonderful.
I loved this book immensely. Such an amazing cyberpunk heist novella.
I was going to give it 4 stars initially because I wanted it to be longer, but I think wanting more means it needs 6 stars or more. This was GOOD. It gave me similar action spy vibes to one of my favorite sci-fi series, so this genuinely scratched an itch I needed scratched.
Thank you for allowing me to read this free copy in advance. It was such an honor! I am leaving this review voluntarily.
