On the surface, Michael Violet is a legitimate San Francisco car dealer. But

appearances can be deceiving.

In reality, he's a talented pickpocket, lifting the keys to the city's most

luxurious cars. He's kept his criminal life secret from his journalist

brother, Jon, who's made a career out of exposing corruption. But when Jon is

killed, Michael uses his talents to track down his brother's killer.

Driven by guilt and revenge, Michael finds himself forced into the role of the

hero, whether he likes it or not. But turning from thief to hero isn't going

to be easy...
