Scarlett McCain is a shoot-first ask-questions-later kind of outlaw. She scrapes by on bank heists, her wits&mdash;and never looking back.
&#160;
She&rsquo;s on the run from her latest crime when she comes across Albert Browne. He is the sole survivor of a horrific accident, and against her better judgement, Scarlett agrees to guide him to safety.
&#160;
This is a mistake. Soon there are men with dogs and guns and explosives hot on their heels. Scarlett&rsquo;s used to being chased by the law, but this is extreme. It was only a <little< bank she&rsquo;d robbed . . .
&#160;
As they flee together across the wilds, fighting off monstrous beasts, and dodging their pursuers, Scarlett comes to realize that Albert Browne is hiding a terrible secret. And that <he< may be the most dangerous threat of all.
&#160;
In this fast-paced, quick-witted whirlwind of a story, Jonathan Stroud introduces two unlikely allies&mdash;the outlaws Scarlett and Browne&mdash;who are about to become the most notorious renegades in all that&rsquo;s left of Britain.
