My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoy this author quite a bit, so I was excited to jump into this book. The Thieves was good but I was expecting more. Not that the author didn’t produce a well written book, I just wanted more out of it than I got.
Written two points of view. Two different sets of thieves. The initial thieves and the ones that stole from them. 500k at stake will they be caught? Will the initial thieves get their money back? So many questions and tons of answers. So let’s jump into the adventure, shall we.
Jas thought, Phil and her pulled off the perfect theft. $500k from her boss to get her sick father treatment and the rest to disappear. Because if her boss found out she’d definitely disappear. What she didn’t factor into her plan was that Bets and Zerk saw it go down and decided they were going to take their score as their own.
Bets and Zerk just got the biggest score of their lives, now it’s time to settle down and quit the business. Ending up in the small town of Millersville they thought they were golden to settle down. Unfortunately those amateur kids were coming for what’s theirs.
It’s a constant story of back and forth that overlaps nicely. From reading a previous book by this author I was hoping for a better climactic ending, I think I set my hopes a little too high. Doesn’t mean it was bad, it just fell short that’s all. But don’t let that deter you. Jump in and you may feel differently. The book overall was good! So read it, I dare you… lol

The Thieves (The Millersville series) Audiobook by Susan Specht Oram – Review by Shelly Kittell

4/5 stars

This is book 2 of the series and it’s just as good as the previous book. It’s a fast-paced story of two duos and this book will have you wanting to see what’s coming next. I was pulled right back into the story. It was kind of interesting to hear it in audio. The narrator has a good voice. I do wish she had a little more variety to the voices. There was a touch of monotone but I still thought it was good. She still made it thrilling. The variety and excitement that might have been added would have made the story jump to another level. Everything did flow pretty good. Overall, a story that I would recommend to all.

This is the second book in The Millersville Series, and I enjoyed it just as much as the first.
A great quick, fast paced, very entertaining thriller. Loved the characters, they were very well written and funny also, I found myself laughing quite a few times. You’ll find some great twists and a fantastic surprise ending. I do look forward to more in this series.

The Thieves (The Millersville Series)Audiobook by Susan Specht Oram – Review by Amanda Gonzalez

What started out like a robbery gone wrong turned into a quirky adventure. I was moved by Jas’ motivation for the heist in the first place and felt a connection with her purpose. The adventure was more dramatic and entertaining because of the multiple views from the other characters and gave the story more depth. The author gave the characters their own flaws and made them all the more realistic with the oddities that gave the tale a slightly humorous aspect. I enjoyed listening to the twists and turns the novel took and was pleasantly surprised by the end!

This is the second book in The Millersville Series. This book isn’t as much of a dark psychological Thriller as the first book The Lodge but it is still an entertaining Thriller that will grip you from beginning to end.
This is a story about theft, danger, family, friendship and its full of twists and turns along the way. The characters are well developed and as a reader you feel that you are right along with them. The story is told by alternative characters which keeps the story interesting and allows the reader to get both sides of the story.

Jas and Paul thought they had pulled off the perfect robbery. When Jas’s father has been found to have a lung disease she knows she will stop at nothing to get him treatment to prolong his life. Even if that means stealing the money for the treatment. They think they are in the clear until they are stopped by a couple of “officers” but they were wrong and when they then find themselves being the victims of robbery they lose everything.
This other couple Bets and Zerk are seasoned criminals and they think they have finally got their win fall and could retire. However they didn’t get away a free as they thought and they really underestimated the determination of Jas to get back the money.

What follows is an action packed story full of twists and turns as Jas fights against time to retrieve the money to help her Dad but will she be too late?

This was a strange story with what felt like a bunch of random thoughts being thrown together and I really didn’t feel like it was a thriller. However, this book read super fast and I really enjoyed it. The title is so fitting for the book as it follows the story of several thieves and their bizarre interactions. If you want a quick and entertaining book, this is it. You’ll find yourself cheering on both the good and bad guys. The ending was perfect and brought everything full circle.

Where do I even begin! I love this author and her amazing stories. I only put the book down bc I had places to go people to see and puppies to watch! This was an automatic don’t put that book down kinda book! The story was extremely well written, fast paced, and captivating. You’ll jump from character to character, scene to scene, and won’t miss a beat. Jasmine is out to save her fathers life with a healing surgery in Mexico. Of course it is extremely expensive, so this amateur concocts this plan to steal enough money to take care of him and extend her father’s life! Well as she is robbed by clearly knowledgeable crooks, she decides to keep fighting and not give up! You will be surprised at this series of unfortunate events! This is a must read! Also check out her other physiological thriller! It’s cinema worthy!!!

The Thieves (The Millersville series) Audiobook by Susan Specht Oram – Review by Cindy Mayberry

Jasmine Bucker does something she should not. But she does have a plan and nobody is going to stand in her way. Her father is sick and she promised she would help him financially.  But as luck would have it. Something very wrong had taken a turn for the worst. The phony cops have taken her money and she will do what it takes to get it back. That’s all I will tell you about the story, no spoilers for you. This author not only writes well, her stories are well worth reading. Her sense of humor plays a big part in this fast paced crime thriller. I love the interactions of the characters. At times I found myself laughing at the events of this story. This is a must read series! I can not wait for the next book.

This is my first audio book by this author and I look forward to more in the future.  I enjoyed the narrator’s tone of voice as well as their ability to keep the story engaging.  The characters are connectable and add so much to the story.  I really enjoyed them and what they brought to the story.  I also enjoyed how the narrator brought so much life to the twists and turns that it had me coming back for more.  A story of a recovery mission to save a father and a daughter determined to save him.  A story with great growth and one I enjoyed listening to for sure.  I highly recommend this audiobook.

This is the second book in this series and is just as great as the first one if not better. I highly suggest reading the previous book in this series as well to help your enhancement of this author and her characters. I found this book to be well developed with characters that bring the story to life. They are connectable and add so much to the story. They bring suspense and twists and turns to a new level. A story of a recovery mission to save a father and a daughter determined to save him. A story that is full of action and determination. A fast paced, hard to put down story that you don’t want to miss. There is great growth of the plot throughout the story which makes it easy to read. I highly recommend this book.

Susan has done it again! A fun read about two sets of thieves trying to do good things with stolen money. This book kept me engrossed until the very end, from Jas and Phil to Bets and Zerk. The story is told from both Jasmine’s and Bet’s side and the side characters add so much entertainment. If you like suspenseful thrillers, then this is the book for you.

Jasmine (Jas) loves her dad. She’d do anything for him and when he tells her that he has a devastating lung disease that doesn’t have the best hopes for recovery, Jas steps in and does what any daughter might do. Or would they? Jas works for a man who’s pretty shady and is laundering money. She takes a risk and steals the money needed to get her dad into a treatment center. Next thing you know, sirens and badges are involved and she finds herself stranded on the side of the road.

Soon, Jas learns who her friends are and even makes new friends along the way and she is on a “vacation of a lifetime” trying to get her dad to treatment. This book has all kinds of ups and downs. There are periods of extreme intensity and others where there are smiles or laughter. I became a fan of Robbie but it took me a minute to warm up to her.

This book is a pretty fast read and will keep you on the edge of your seat. You just never know who’s going to to show up or what’s about to happen until it does. I picked up this book after reading Shore Lodge: A high-stakes psychological thriller and was not at all disappointed. I look forward to more books in this series!!

The Thieves
By: Susan Specht Oram

Let me start out by saying that Susan Specht Oram is quickly becoming one of my absolute favorite authors. She always delivers on the suspense and the twists and the turns. I love an author that keeps me guessing on each page and this book delivers on this. This book is also filled with quirky characters whom I loved. This book is told from alternating view points which I personally loved, because it allowed you to see multiple perspectives throughout the book. I love the premise of how a woman who is trying to help her father by obtaining cash through questionable means ends up being stolen from. However as the story goes on I really found myself questioning who were the bad guys. I definitely loved this book and cannot wait to read more by Susan Specht Oram!

I was first introduced to this author by reading the first book in The Millersville series, The Lodge. The Thieves is the second book in this high-stakes entertaining thriller.
It is a crazy and fast read and easy to get lost in. The Thieves is not as dark as the first book with its quirky characters that are well developed and will make you laugh out loud and at times feeling sad.
With family bonds, best friends, a heist, action, chase scenes, and some twisty plots you are sure to enjoy this tale. The twist at the end was quite the surprise.
This suspense thriller is adventurous as our MC embarks on a heist with guilt but a good reason. But when her loot is stolen the fun begins.
It’s one of those books where you can escape reality with a drink and sun.
