Twelve-year-old Robyn Loxley is thrust into a world of danger when her parents vanish and a tyrant seizes control of Nott City. Forced to flee, she joins a group of misfit kids, each with unique talents for mischief. Together, they challenge the oppressive regime, but Robyn's quest is personal—she must find her parents. As she unravels the mystery of their disappearance, Robyn discovers her fate is intertwined with the city's future in unexpected ways. Can she outsmart the governor and reclaim her life, or will the city's secrets consume her?

A compelling reboot of the Robin Hood myth. –Rick Riordan, bestselling author of Percy Jackson & the Olympians The night her parents disappear, twelve-year-old Robyn Loxley must learn to fend for herself. Her home, Nott City, has been taken over by a harsh governor, Ignomus Crown. After fleeing for her life, Robyn has no choice but to join a band of strangers–misfit kids, each with their own special talent for mischief. Setting out to right the wrongs of Crown’s merciless government, they take their outlaw status in stride. But Robyn can’t rest until she finds her parents. As she pieces together clues from the night they disappeared, Robyn learns that her destiny is tied to the future of Nott City in ways she never expected.
