Just Watch Me

Just Watch Me by Jeff Lindsay, 358 pages

Master thief Riley Wolfe has just stolen a 12-ton statue out of a dedication ceremony in the middle of the day and it was just too easy for him. He's bored and is feeling an itch to try something impossible when he finds out that the Iranian crown jewels will be traveling to New York City to be displayed in the U.S. for the first time ever. Among them is a diamond so large and striking that it's estimated to be worth $15 billion — more than enough to ensure that the hosting museum has multiple levels of top-notch security on every inch of the building. But to Riley, that makes this jewel even more enticing.

This is a twisty, thrilling heist, featuring an unscrupulous antihero (which is exactly what you'd expect from the creator of Dexter), and it is SO FUN. I can't wait to read more Riley Wolfe books in the future.
