The Venice Double picks up where Safecracker left off, after Grantchester “Duke” Ducaine steps back into the thieving game to spring his dad from prison and save himself from losing his thumbs to a gambling debt. Now, a few months later, he’s trying to decide if he’d get more satisfaction from putting a bullet into the fixer who betrayed him, or his overbearing father, Knox. But when an old friend of his parents’ calls in a favor, Duke jets to Italy to pull off the exact same job they did before he was born: The Venice Double.

Grantchester “Duke” Ducaine and his sister, Ginny, were raised to be thieves, by a master thief. Instead of spending their childhood with toys and bikes, it was lockpicks and Glocks. Now Duke is alone, adrift, and out of the life. His dad is serving time, and he doesn’t like to think about what happened to Ginny. He spends his days haunting the streets of Los Angeles, busting civilian safes for enough cash to keep him one step ahead of the bookies breathing down his neck.
