Manthony (M. Anthony) has an ungodly knack for thievery...but no marketable skills for honest work. He's an orphan with zero dollars in his wallet and no sense to his name, scrounging by on his angelic good looks and wide-eyed charm. When he attempts to steal from the famed Tristan Montgomery, Tristan recognizes in Manthony an unparalleled -- but unrefined -- talent for theft, and is compelled to take the young man under his wing. But will Manthony be able to pull off the greatest heist of all -- stealing his gentleman teacher's heart? THICK AS THIEVES
