Arrested and put in a young offender's institute for using his precocious code-solving skills to steal money, things are looking bleak for Jonah Wish.

Then, in the dead of night, a gang of four teenagers break him out.

They work for Nathaniel Coldhardt, debonair master criminal and leader of a team of highly trained teen-thieves.

Jonah, a genius at cryptology, is their newest recruit.

His talents are perfect for the next assignment Coldhardt has in mind - his most daring yet.

Coldhardt may have chosen him, but will he choose Coldhardt? And does he have any choice...
