The second book in Ally Carter’s brand new series about a team of teenage con artists, Heist Society 2: Uncommon Criminals, comes out in July 2012.

Katarina Bishop and her crew are approached to steal the infamous Cleopatra Emerald, so it can be returned to its rightful owners. But nothing is ever as simple as it sounds, and this job could be the hardest one she’s ever had to do …

 

Kat might be in way over her head, but she's not going down without a fight. After all, she has her best friend - the gorgeous Hale - and the rest of her crew with her as they chase the emerald around the globe, dodging curses and realizing that the same tricks and cons her family has used for centuries are useless for this heist. This time, Kat's going to have to make up her own rules.
