If you've had the chance to watch one of my YouTube videos, you might be aware of a little challenge I started for myself at the beginning of 2025, which I called my Top Shelf Challenge. Although it didn't go quite as I expected it to, it didn't go horribly either. However, I'm honestly a little nervous for the first book I've taken off the shelf to start the challenge for 2026 Just Thieves by Gregory Galloway because I've seen it categorized as noir which I don't always get along with. But it's been sitting here long enough, so it's time to get on with it.
From the cover: Rick and Frank are recovering addicts and accomplished house thieves who steal to order, as assigned jobs by their boss. Nothing is left to chance - in fact, chance is their biggest fear.
But then they're sent to an unfamiliar city to break into a home and steal something that seems completely worthless to them...until they discover that there are others who want it badly enough to do anything to get it.
As Rick and Frank become trapped in a tightening web of greed and violence, they must confront their past and their livelihoods, while trying to outsmart shadowy forces they don't understand.
