 Can they catch a thief by being a thief?

Shyla's teenage sister has disappeared. And it's her fault. On her watch.

Desperate to find Hannah and keep the truth from unraveling her family, Shyla can trust the authorities or take matters into her own hands. She plans a heist. The target? Her mother's newly acquired million-dollar jewelry.

But the necklace isn't just expensive. It's dangerous.

Damien is running from a violent past but when his troubled brother resurfaces with warnings about stolen jewels and powerful men, Damien realizes the timing isn't coincidence. Meeting Shyla feels accidental, until they discover they're chasing the same shadow.

As high-end jewelry begins disappearing from Vancouver Island's elite, Shyla and Damien form a reluctant alliance. To protect her sister, expose the truth, and stay one step ahead of criminals who don't forgive mistakes, they must pull off an impossible crime.

Because thirty-five years ago, Emerald was the first of eight foster girls entrusted with jewels she was told were fake.

They weren't.

Now the gems are resurfacing. And someone is determined to silence anyone who knows why.
