A senior at Harvard, Will fits comfortably in his carefully curated roles: a perfect student, an art history major and sometimes artist, the eldest son who has always been his parents' American Dream. But when a mysterious Chinese benefactor reaches out with an impossible—and illegal—job offer, Will finds himself something else as well: the leader of a heist to steal back five priceless Chinese sculptures, looted from Beijing centuries ago.

I really liked listening to this book. I appreciated the different character voices, the cultural histories behind each facet of the story, and I love a good heist. The characters and their intertwining stories were well developed. One criticism I do have is the writing seemed to rely a bit heavily on certain metaphors or stylistic choices. One I noticed often was “____ was all ____”, for example “her face was all cheekbones and harsh lines” or “the building was all steel and white walls”. It became distracting at points but I really enjoyed the book overall.
