Money Run by Jack Heath
This is a fun YA thriller. The story is about two fifteen year old professional thieves, Ash and Benjamin. They begin their lives of thievery when Ash's home is burglarized and rather than calling the cops, she and Benjamin devise a plan to steel back her belongings. That is when they realize they have a knack for burglary and thus begin their life of crime.
In this book, Ash and Benjamin have devised a scheme to rob one of the wealthiest men in the country. This story takes place within a 24 hour period and during that time, Ash is chased by a killer, shot at, exposed to anthrax, flies a helicopter, and many other death defying escapes, meanwhile, Benjamin is in the background running technical support that saves the day on several occasions. This is a fast paced book with very engaging characters. Some of the scenarios are a little over the top, but it was a quick, fun read and I look forward to reading the next Jack Heath novel.
