Annie Nicholas’ Dash is a clever, savvy novel about a street-smart thief who plans the ultimate heist, but gets a conscience before the job can go down.

Jack Dash is a wealthy 40-year-old handsome American thief.

His modus operandi has always been to rob from the rich. With his mentor and close friend, Pop, an ex-jewel thief, the two decide to go for one last heist. The plan is to snatch a pair of rare art prints from Raul Shaeed, a ruthless billionaire industrialist who plans to give the prints to his beautiful bride-to-be, Billie Dean.

Jack quickly befriends Billie, an English aristocrat and perfume tycoon, in order to make the tricky heist an easier job. What he didn’t expect was his heart ruling his head and at the very last moment, seconds away from making millions, he decides he can’t possibly manipulate or put Billie at risk. To Pop’s mounting fears, Jack calls the whole thing off.

Suddenly Jack and Pop are thrown into an extremely perilous situation when the prints are discovered missing and people wanting them either dead, behind bars, or both. A cat and mouse game ensues, between two continents as Billie has her own set of problems and everyone is quickly running out of time to find a solution to this multimillion-dollar dilemma.

Who is responsible for the theft and why? Will Jack survive what would have been the biggest heist of his life and will Billie prove to have been worth the effort? The most overwhelming question is: Just who is using who?

Nicholas has written a fast-paced, immensely entertaining read that keeps the reader guessing throughout a razor-sharp plot. Packed with brilliant characters and crackling dialogue, this is suspense storytelling at its best.
