When career thief Robin comes across a boarding pass for the Whirlwind Express, she thinks she's found a literal ticket to freedom. With a case full of stolen jewelry and her loyal bodyguard at her side, she's ready to flee the country in style...
That is, until she runs into her childhood friend turned detective. Though he doesn't appear to recognize her, he keeps an annoyingly close watch on her anyway.
It's not just the detective who's taken interest in her, either. With so many prying eyes, she'll have to be extra careful to keep her lies straight.
Can Robin keep her cool as she navigates a series of mind games? Or will her cover be blown along with her escape plan?
Growing up wealthy, Robin had everything she could ever want... or so it seemed. Longing for a life of adventure, she became a runaway at a young age. She enjoys lying and stealing, and appears to be having more fun than this dangerous situation calls for.
Robin's traveling companion and loyal bodyguard. He has a short temper and doesn't agree with Robin's carefree attitude. Accustomed to solving problems through the use of force, he has no qualms 'protecting' Robin by removing her from this situation, even if it's against her will.
Robin's childhood friend, whom she hasn't seen for over ten years. With a keen eye for details and a love of games, it's no wonder he became a detective. He says he's on the train to investigate the murder of a famous jeweler and, whether he recognizes her or not, he seems to have a special interest in Robin.
Handsome, single, and (most importantly) rich, Fletcher is just the sort of man Robin likes to cozy up to. However, she quickly realizes that his sweet talk might be hiding a not-so-sweet personality. Apparently aquainted with detective Wren, Robin has to wonder if he's hiding anything else...
