Caravan of Thieves

A spectacular debut thriller about a charming con artist, a complicated heist, and the son charged with
constructing a fragile truth out of a lifetime of lie.

Rollie Waters has no intention of paying for the sins of his father, Dan. Rollie is going to
make others pay, and he is going to use the tricks and tactics his charming, enigmatic
con artist father taught him-and a few Rollie dreams up along the way-to make it
all happen. Dan taught Rollie how to stay two steps ahead of trouble and how to offer
cheap gifts with one hand while stealing the family silver with the other. But, unlike
Dan, Rollie is not a criminal.

Rollie's childhood was a mesh of perfectly believable lies stretched so thin that
he barely knows who he is. It's only when he's working undercover, inhabiting a false
identity, that Rollie is comfortable in his own skin. The danger of deep undercover work
makes use of his talents and keeps him out of trouble. Most of the time.
After he's yanked out of his latest assignment and tossed in the brig, he's only
partly surprised when the officials in charge mention one name: Dan Waters. U.S.
government money-a lot of money-has gone missing, and they think Rollie's father
took it. The only way to find Dan is to trace the frail tendrils of truth scattered among
Rollie's childhood memories. To do that, he'll have to go deep into the undercover
identity of a lifetime: his own.
