Sinopse
A sharp-witted teenage thief leads a team of skilled misfits in a dangerous and daring heist for fortune, freedom and revenge against a corrupt Pope in Renaissance Italy in Caitlin Schneiderhan's clever YA debut, Medici Heist.
Welcome to Florence, 1517, a world of intrigue and opulence, murder and betrayal. Seventeen-year-old conwoman Rosa Cellini arrives in the city the same day that the Medici Pope, Leo X, returns to take up the reins of power. This is not a coincidence. The new Pope is extorting a mountain of indulgence money from the people of Florence to bolster his power and standing, and Rosa has a plan to take it back.
To pull off the Renaissance’s greatest robbery, she’ll recruit a team of specially-chosen, highly-skilled misfits: Sarra the tinkerer, Khalid the fighter, and Giacomo, the irrepressible master of disguise. To top it all off, and to smooth their entrance into the fortress-like Palazzo Medici, Rosa even enlists the reluctant help of the famed artist Michelangelo.
But as the authorities draw closer and the Medici’s noose pulls tighter around the land, old secrets resurface and tensions in the group start to flare. What began as a robbery could be the key to saving the city itself—if Rosa and company don’t destroy each other first.
Resumo da Crítica
"Medici Heist will draw you in with its inventive and exciting take on the heist genre—the action is gripping enough on its own to make the book a joyride you don't want to miss, but Schneiderhan doesn't stop there. She has created a cast of characters that you will deeply love from the moment you meet them and as you sit on the edge of your seat waiting to see if they'll pull it off, you'll also be rooting for them with your heart in your throat. It's hard to pick my favorite element of this story: I was thrilled by the expertly planned heist, inspired by the ragtag crew of Davids standing up to Goliath, and utterly charmed by the relationships that bloomed between these unforgettable characters. Whether you love scrappy heroes, chosen families, swoon-worthy romances, or heart-pounding action, Medici Heist has it all."—Lauren Shippen, author of The Bright Sessions series and podcast
"A stunning debut for Caitlin Schneiderhan. Weaving together a cast of loveable rogues, a richly detailed historical setting, and a cinematic thrill ride of a story, Medici Heist knocked us flat. Let’s hope this is the first of many epic adventures for Rosa and her crew—because we need more!" —the Duffer Brothers, creators of Netflix's Stranger Things

Caitlin Schneiderhan takes readers on a wild, sumptuous tour of historical Florence, packed with cinematic action and helmed by a gang of lovable misfits and outsiders who come together to pull off an impossible heist. I couldn't put this down!\" —Mackenzi Lee, New York Times bestselling author of A Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue
"Prepare for a white-knuckled, brilliantly plotted adventure! Medici Heist is a fun, rollicking escapade through Renaissance Florence that will leave you wanting more." —Adriana Mather, New York Times bestselling author of How to Hang a Witch
