Description
Two years of runaway, five countries. Carrie Wilson was known as Lady Slick, ever since she burned her fingerprints off on a stove. **** Carrying a difficult life of crime on her hands, she resorts to one last robbery before she retires for good. The most expensive diamond in London, the Phoenix's Feather, worth over fifteen million dollars--that she has to share with her allies. She has to plan with utmost precision, making sure she never gets caught, or it's a life in the worst jail for good. However, someone gets the stone before she and her friends can. The owner of the stone, Marilyn Phoenix, sends her on a crucial job to retrieve the stone back--for a great reward but stern punishment for failure--unaware of her original schemes. Soon, she finds her own suicide note that she never wrote, meaning that someone is out to kill her before she can grab the stone--and she manages to cheat them more than once--using luck. **** Who forged the note? Could it be the thief? Will she get the crystal back? Or will she suffer a great deal of jailtime? **** Story contains mentions of death, gore and teenage jewel thieves. 💫
