Let me begin by telling you a little about the some of the important characters in this story. First of we have....Cat Montgomery- she is the leading lady and the story pretty much resolves around her. She is a very skilled jewel thief that is on a mission to redeem herself for what happened to her sister Penny when they were kids. Cat ends up taking a very difficult and dangerous job out side of AB&T; thinking that it is the job that will set her free. She soon learns that there is much more going on then she knew and sets out to fix a new wrong. She is over all a very strong and likeable character.Jack Barlow- he is Cat's ex boyfriend/FBI/hypocrite. He ends up involved in trying to steal the Faberge Egg because of a promise to his deceased father. Now mind you...he broke up with Cat because she is a thief! He goes through a lot throughout the book to help keep Cat safe as he discovers he still has strong feelings for her. P.S. he sucks at being a thief and is always way behind. Although he is foolish he is still a likeable character.Brook- what to say about her. She is a bit of a conniving b!@$h. She is a ex thief that taught Cat how to move up and become a jewel thief rather then just a pick pocket. However as Cat got good and began to be noticed by the agency Brook became jealous and set out to ruin Cat which ended herself in jail. Now out she has set out to ruin Cats life untill the end of the book when she redeems herself by helping Cat. I like where things end with her.Ethan- he is in the Elite. He is a highly skilled art thief and him and Cat end up hooking up. He is kind of a jerk but in the end comes through for Cat and even ends up nearly dying in the process. I actually feel sorry for him in the end.Nicole Johnson- first let me start by saying I went to school with a girl with this name and she too was not a nice person. just sayin! anyway she is FBI agent/ Jack's gf/ bad guy. I'm sure we will see her again in the future.Cats mom- I enjoyed her character throughout the book. She made me laugh several times with her meddling.Over all as a whole, this was a good book. It was very well edited and the story kept me engaged. The book flowed seamlessly. You had several important characters in this story but it never felt to busy.I'm anxious to see what will be discovered about the prophecy that s clearly about Cat and what will happen between Jack, Ethan, and Cat in the next book. Not quite sure who I'm pulling for there cause I have faults with both men so we will see.
