4.0

You’ll enjoy this book if you like stories about drifting con artists. It really reminds me of a series called Imposters with the same kind of plot: a con artist who works in a larger group of cons with a mysterious boss at the front. 

The only thing that was slightly disappointing is the low stakes of the “big reveal”. For my taste it was a bit underwhelming but this book kept me interested the entire way.
