Crookhaven

13-year-old Gabriel is a brilliant pickpocket, a skill which he uses to keep his often empty belly not quite so empty. And then one day, he's caught. But instead of being arrested, he is invited by the mysterious Caspian Crook to attend Crookhaven - a school for thieves. At Crookhaven, students are trained in lock-picking, forgery and 'crim-nastics', all with the intention of doing good out in the world, by conning the bad and giving back to the innocent. But...can you ever really trust a thief?

It's Gabriel's second year at Crookhaven. With new classes, a seemingly-impossible Break-In challenge and the mystery over The Nameless to uncover, it's going to be a busy year. And that's before Gabriel and his friends learn about Maravel's Maze.

The third book in the irresistible series about chosen family, high stakes thievery, and what it really means to do good. Perfect for fans of M.G. Leonard and Anthony Horowitz.

It's Gabriel's fourth year at Crookhaven School for Thieves, and it's the most challenging one yet. Along with mastering a new class—Lay of the Land—Upper Delinquents are supposed to start thinking about life after Crookhaven. Their schoolwork is beginning to have real world implications, and this year's Break-In challenge is set in an external location known to be impenetrable—the Impossible Fortress. But the world outside their school grounds can be a dark and dangerous place.

It's Gabriel's fifth and final year at Crookhaven School for Thieves, and the crew have only one thing on their minds. This year, they must take down Gabriel's parents - the infamous leaders of the criminal organisation, the Nameless - once and for all. How will the crew balance this goal alongside their last year of studies, which includes a new class called Groundwork, and the most difficult Break-in to date: infiltrating Crookhaven itself? Most importantly, can they find a way to lure two of the Underworld's most notorious villains out of the shadows, without anyone getting hurt...?
