Publisher's Summary
Life's a game, and they've come to play. Two female con artists must pull off the ultimate heist in this rollicking caper.
Emma Oxley and Nellie Yarrow have been inseparable their whole lives. Ever since they reinvented themselves, changing their names and wiping clean their digital footprints, they have made a game of following wherever the next adventure leads and challenging themselves to thefts, street cons, and mind games.
Adhering to only two rules—they will only swindle men, and only ones who deserve it—Emma and Nellie are secure in their reputation as the most trustworthy swindlers on the European black market. Until suddenly, they must play to save their own lives.
Blackmailed into stealing a priceless bracelet from a high-security exhibit, Emma will reexamine everything she believed to be true. This heist takes her far beyond her comfort zone...and she and Nellie will need allies among the glitzy bejeweled gathering in London in order to survive. Will they be able to do the right thing before it’s too late?
What the critics say
“This high-flying heist has glamour, thrills, and diamond-hard edges, with a touching found family story at its core.”—Nina Simon, New York Times bestselling author of Mother-Daughter Murder Night
"Clever and fast-paced and fun, The Confidence Games had me on the edge of my seat trying to figure out how Nellie and Emma were going to con their way out of this one. I loved the friendship between the two women and the theme of found family throughout, showing that even people who play tricks for a living want to have an open and trusting heart when it matters. Reading this book felt like peeking inside a luxury watch's mechanism to see how it all works—I'm in awe of the way Tess Amy put this puzzle together!"—Alicia Thompson, USA Today bestselling author of Love in the Time of Serial Killers
"With plenty of gleaming locales to satisfy armchair travelers and an engrossing crime plot to boot, this has the makings of a series. Fans of Janet Evanovich and Elle Cosimano will be pleased."—Publishers Weekly
"Clever and fast-paced and fun!"—Alicia Thompson, USA Today bestselling author of The Art of Catching Feelings
