The third book in the irresistible series is about chosen family, high-stakes thievery, and what it really means to do good. Perfect for fans of M.G. Leonard and Anthony Horowitz.

It's Gabriel's third year at Crookhaven School for Thieves. Along with the usual Break-In challenge - this year to Reclamation Island - and difficult new classes like Signs & Signals, Gabriel and his friends have another goal: taking down the Nameless.

The Nameless are the very worst type of criminals - they steal, trick and kidnap for their 
own benefit, rather than to do good in the world. Each member of Gabriel's crew has a very personal reason for wanting to take the Nameless down - but what can a group of underage school children do compared to the most powerful crew of the underworld?

Luckily, there might be something hidden at Crookhaven that could help them. But first they have to find it...

Selected by Anne Bradley

This is the third book in the Crook Haven series and is as exciting and thrilling as the two
previous stories. They follow the adventures of Gabriel and his friends at the Crook Haven
school for thieves. Each story presents strong moral messages and the importance of
teamwork and empathy. The narrative is fast-paced, and these books are real page-turners.
They are great to read aloud, and I have recommended them to many independent readers. I can’t wait for the next instalment!
