No Justice for Thieves by Laura Greenwood

adventurous mysterious reflective tense medium-paced

4.5

This is the start of an urban fantasy series combining Egyptian mythology and alternate realities. Rera is a thief trying to get by and provide for her sister, and working as part of a crew of thieves she has jobs to do including stealing relics from God's temples. When she tries to escape from a heist she finds herself chosen by the God of Truth in an accidental blessing ceremony, and now has the ability to hear people's truth and lies. She's tricked into working undercover so she can report on her gang and use her gifts. Stuck between loyalty to her friends and curiosity at the Gods purpose for her, she's risking a lot to stay undercover and do what's right. 
I liked the added mystery of the other blessed gifts, the action from the heists, and the mystery and intrigue of learning everyone's secrets, including Ben's undercover purpose. 
This is a fun introduction to the series, and I can't wait for more.
