A SECRET SOCIETY. A MYTHICAL SCHOOL. A DANGEROUS GAME. It is an ordinary Tuesday morning when bored, lonely Charlie Fisher witnesses something incredible. In a busy square in Marseille, a group of pickpockets pulls off an amazing robbery. As the young bandits melt into the crowd, Charlie realizes he himself was one of their marks. Yet Charlie is less alarmed than intrigued. This is the most thrilling thing that’s happened to him since he moved to France. So instead of reporting the thieves, Charlie defends one of their cannons, Amir, to the police, under one condition: he teach Charlie the tricks of the trade. What starts off as a lesson on pinches, kicks, and chumps soon turns into an invitation for Charlie to join the secret world of the whiz mob, an international band of young pickpockets who trained at the mysterious School of Seven Bells. But what at first seems like a (relatively) harmless new pastime draws him into a risky adventure with global stakes greater than he could have ever imagined.
