January 6 - ‘Thieves’ Gambit’ by Kayvion Lewis

The Gambit invites you to join . . . are you game?

A Quest can’t trust anyone in this world—except for a Quest. At least that’s what’s been drilled into seventeen-year-old Rosalyn Quest since practically birth. And for good reason—Ross is part of a legendary family of thieves who have built their fortunes collecting ill-gotten gains by pulling the ultimate heists. But Ross is tired of it. She wants more out of life, but on the night she plans her escape, her mother is kidnapped. Ross should have known payback would come sooner or later.

In a desperate bid to save her mother, Ross enters the Thieves’ Gambit, a high-stakes competition for the world’s best up-and-coming thieves, where the winner is granted one wish—for anything you want.

Ross only wants to save her mother’s life, and she’s playing to win. But in a globetrotting game full of dangerous, escalating trials where killing isn’t exactly off-limits, Ross must use all her skills to outsmart her cunning and cutthroat competitors, including her childhood nemesis and a handsome, smooth-talking boy who might also be making a play for her heart.
