Crookhaven: The School for Thieves a book by J.J. Arcanjo.

His debut middle-grade book, CROOKHAVEN: THE SCHOOL FOR THIEVES, will be published by Hachette on 2nd March 2023. I wrote and read from a young age, split between an urban suburb in the West Midlands and the coastal wilderness of West Cornwall. I particularly liked how up-to-date technology such as drones, security systems and hacking mingled with timeless pickpocketing and forgery.As these charges are the responsibility of the recipient, please check the customs service in your destination country to see if charges are applicable.

But when, one day, he his caught by Caspian Crook, he is invited to join the secretive school of Crookhaven.

Crookhaven is a place where thieves are taught to become exceptional in the arts of hacking, forgery, crimnastics, tricks of the trade, lock-picking and more, but ONLY to right the wrongs of the world and take back what has been robbed from the innocent. But the impossible has never stopped Gabriel's crew before, especially not when there's something at the heart of the maze that they all desperately want. With its Robin Hood vibes, themes of family and friendship, and exploration of what it really means to do good, Crookhaven is a thrilling, escapist adventure full of secrets and skulduggery, and with an imaginative power that marks out an exciting and empathetic new voice in children's fiction. We pay respect to the Elders past, present and emerging, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
