The Thieves (The Millersville series) by Susan Specht Oram – Review by Mary Espinoza

The Thieves by Susan Specht Oram
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The author has done it again! I truly enjoyed Shore Lodge which is the first book in this series, I highly recommend reading it so you can get a feel for the town and the development of the characters in this book. To me, this book wasn’t as dark as the first one, but was equally as entertaining. Jasmine or Jas (the main character) loves her dad and just like any girl who loves her dad, she is willing to do anything for him. When her dad springs on her that he has a devastating lung disease that doesn’t have the best hopes for recovery, Jas start to think of ways to help her dad. She steps in and does what any daughter might do for their dad, or would they? Jas works for a man who doesn’t have the best reputation and is downright shady, especially with his had in laundering money. She decides that she needs to take a risk and steals the money that is needed to get her dad into a treatment center. Next thing she knows is that sirens, badges and being stranded on the side of the road quickly become her future.

With all of these exciting new things happening to Jas, she quickly has to learn who her friends are, aren’t and even finds herself making new friends along the way. She is on a “vacation of a lifetime” trying to get her dad to treatment. This book has all the feels involved…. there’s plenty of laughs, maybe a few tears and of course a huge dose of mystery.

This book was a pretty quick, entertaining read that will keep you on the edge of your seat. You just never know who’s going to show up, what’s going to happen and who it is going to happen to! Is Jas the only thief or are there multiple thieves? Does Jas get her dad the help that he needs or are her efforts a complete bust? The only way to find out is to read for yourself!
