Legendary master thief and conman Gideon Sable must pull off an impossible heist to save his partner's life in this fast-paced supernatural thriller from New York Times bestselling British fantasy author Simon R. Green

Gideon Sable specializes in stealing the kind of things that can't usually be stolen. But these days the legendary master thief is officially retired from the caper game. Now, instead of pulling off elaborate heists with his crew of supernatural specialists, he runs a magical shop in the heart of London with his partner Annie Anybody. Still, he can't resist occasionally going out in the night to steal things when Annie's not looking. For old times' sake—and for the joy of the con.

But after one of his late-night illicit jaunts, Gideon returns to the shop to find that while he's been stealing, someone else has been hard at work... stealing from him. I have taken Annie Anybody, reads the note on the countertop. If you ever want to see her again, you must find and steal Time's Arrow. You have forty-eight hours.

Stealing the legendary Arrow isn't a challenge; it's certain death. But Gideon will stop at nothing to save Annie from their unknown enemy—with or without the help of his talented, terrifying former crew.

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

Morons! All of them!

“I’m not just the man with the plan, I’m the smartest man in the room.”
Gideon is at his smuggest, yet moronic, self in this one. What could have been a great ‘getting the band back together’ finale for the crew instead unraveled as Gideon attempts to save kidnapped Annie by transporting alone into a life and death situation to save Lex/ Sally, then transporting alone into another life and death situation to save Polly … when he could have brought friends and devices with him. Why? Because nothing logical happens in this convoluted mess.

Don’t even get me started about the asinine, entirely unnecessary, motive behind the kidnapping. Team Gideon will never do the smart thing when being cryptic and convoluted is an option.

And how many villains come back from oblivion in this one? I lost count.
And how many friends get beaten to a pulp then healed with a magical easy button? Lost count there too.
This was a chaotic mess.
