Prince of Thieves - Chuck Hogan

The latest thriller from the bestselling author of The Standoff. In this gripping, intricately plotted story, Claire Keesey is the branch manager who survives a bank robbery that nearly ends in disaster, only to fall for a man who, unbeknownst to her, is a criminal mastermind. \nFrom the author of The Strain comes a tense, psychologically gripping, Hammet award-winning thriller. \nFour masked men--thieves, rivals, and friends from the tough streets of Charlestown--take on a Boston bank at gunpoint. Holding bank manager Claire Keesey hostage and cleaning out the vault were simple. But career criminal Doug MacRay didn't plan on one thing: falling hard for Claire. When he tracks her down without his mask and gun, their mutual attraction is undeniable. With a tenacious FBI agent following his every move, he imagines a life away from his gritty, dangerous work--a life centered around Claire. But before that can happen, Doug and his crew learn that there may be a way to rob Boston's venerable baseball stadium, Fenway Park. Risky yet utterly irresistible, it would be the perfect heist to end his criminal career and begin a new life. But, as it turns out, pursuing Claire may be the most dangerous act of all. \n \nRacing to an explosive climax, Prince of Thieves is a brash tale of robbery in all its forms--and an unforgettable odyssey of crime, love, ambition, and dreams.\n
