Funny how one little thing
can change your life.
Joey Clinton was only eleven when a stolen red yo-yo revealed something extraordinary: his mind could make him valuable to the wrong people.
Bright, curious, and gifted at figuring out how things work, Joey soon graduates from small thefts to a world of rare automobiles, priceless artwork, valuable coins, and treasures coveted by collectors. Then comes the job that changes everything.
A rare 1965 Shelby Cobra is displayed at a prestigious charity gala in downtown Cleveland. Surrounded by security, wealthy guests, and cameras, stealing it should be impossible. Almost.
The successful heist puts Joey and his partner Marie on the organization’s radar - and launches them into a far more dangerous game.
As the jobs grow bigger and the targets more valuable, Joey and Marie assume new identities, outsmart investigators, and become increasingly important to an organization building an empire of stolen treasures. But every successful heist comes with a price.
And the deeper Joey goes, the harder it becomes to escape. The question is no longer whether Joey can open the vault. It’s whether he can ever find a way out of the life he has unlocked.
