Manipulator. Con artist. Call it what you will--Bianca St. Ives is the best in the business. Growing up, Bianca St. Ives knew she was different from all her friends. Instead of playing hopscotch or combing her dolls' hair, she studied martial arts with sensei masters and dismantled explosives with special-ops retirees. Her father prepped her well to carry on the family business. Now a striking beauty with fierce skills, the prodigy has surpassed the master. She's known as the Guardian. Running a multinational firm with her father, she makes a living swindling con men out of money they stole--and she's damn good at it. She does things on her own terms. But her latest gig had a little hiccup--if you count two hundred million dollars and top secret government documents going missing as little. Her father also died on the mission. The thing is, the US government doesn't believe he's really dead"-- $c From the publisher. 650 0 $a Swindlers and swindling $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Private security services $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft 800 1 $a Robards, Karen, $t The Guardian ; #1 941 $a 2 952 $l TBPD706 $d 20240621013026.0 952 $l AKPC906 $d 20200512010209.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=879FFD42925711E99C50735597128E48 994 $a C0 $b JIWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
