“[A] crackling debut…. The novel moves along briskly while dutifully adhering to the tropes of the heist genre, but this stands out for its unexpected depth; Wan expertly delves into her protagonists’ emotional backstories and reveals their complexities…. Wan pulls this off without a hitch.” —Publishers Weekly

“Crazy Rich Asians, but add a heist led by three feisty women fed up with society’s double standards? YES PLEASE.
