Our Crystal Ball Says...

We Have a Winner!
Hannah Tinti's debut novel, The Good Thief, promises to be one of fall's most sought after reads. The novel is original, smartly-plotted, darkly comic, and has much to say about the age-old battle between good and evil.

The Story in Brief
Twelve year-old Ren does not understand why he was abandoned as an infant at Saint Anthony’s Orphanage for boys. Benjamin Nab appears, claiming to be Ren’s long-lost brother; Ren is released into Benjamin's care. Adventures set in New England unfold from here with questions galore about Benjamin, Ren's past, and both of their futures.

The Good Thief is a thrilling read and a real-deal adventure novel for adults and teens alike.
