Hijinks, heists, and high-octane fun abounds in a new adventure from bestselling author Jude Watson. On a foggy night in Amsterdam, a man falls from a rooftop to the wet pavement below. It's Alfie McQuinn, the notorious cat burglar, and he's dying. As sirens wail in the distance, Alfie manages to get out two last words to his young son, March: "Find jewels."
When Alfie McQuinn, the notorious jewel thief, is killed on a job, his last words to his son, March, are to "find jewels," and this leads the boy to Jules, the twin sister he never knew he had, and the perfect partner to carry on the family business.
