Burden of Proof
Grifters can't have all the fun...

Sam Seward is a hacker, not a con artist. And after the events that landed him in a military school, he's more than happy to leave the grifting to the expert he left back in Chicago. But when a classmate begs him to help her retrieve something one of the school teachers stole from her, Sam's staunch belief in justice won't let him turn her down. He forms a new crew and plots a heist of his own, but he's not Julep, and something about this case just smells wrong.

Will he be able to pull off a con that even Julep would never attempt? Find out in this companion novella to Down to the Liar.


Praise for the Trust Me series

"Summer creates a standout character in Julep. She lies and cheats with so much confidence and skill that readers will cheer her on, but she also adheres to her own strict moral code. . . . A memorable debut; here's hoping for a lot more from Summer." —Kirkus Reviews

"Entertaining."—Publishers Weekly

"Well-paced, well-plotted."—The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
