Very big news today because… IT’S DOUBLE-CROSSED DAY!
The novella should now be available in most places in the U.S.
As a reminder, you can get it from/for…
Indiebound/Kobo (Same with the link problems. For this, check the website of your local independent bookseller)
And, of course, it should eventually be up on GallagherGirls.com (but it probably won’t be there until sometime on Tuesday).
CORRECTION: turns out there is a new site: www.spiesandthieves.com. The story is up there instead. My apologies.
The best part, of course, is IT’S FREE!
So even if you haven’t tried Heist Society or Gallagher Girls before, then this is a great way to start, and I hope you’ll give it a try.
Now, I’ll let you go. You’ve got some reading to do!
-Ally

i live in Australia and….
can’t find it on the ibookstore!
and when i tried to get it from murderbooks.com it also wasn’t available…
i live in australia too … i feel your pain. I tried amazon and nook too but with no success : (
You can get the book for free on the Australian iBooks app
I know, soon disappointing, I can’t find it on the iBookstore either and it’s not available in Australia through Amazon or B&N. Does this mean it’s not available in Australia at all?
I’m from Aus too, Ally said in a previous post that she didn’t know about international availability dates. The 22nd was just the US release date. Hope this helps.
The link to the new double crossed is on this website GallagherGirls.com. Reread this post and you will find it! It is awesome and Hale is so hot!
Here is the direct link : http://www.spiesandthieves.com. The story is up there instead.
You can try gallaghergirls.com.
i was Gonna say that 2
found a pdf version here (: http://spiesandthieves.com/pdf/Double_Crossed.pdf
Yeah, that worked the story was great!
I totally LOVED THE BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go to “www.spiesandthieves.com” and just get it for free there — hope this helps
I loved it! I actually stayed up till midnight so I could read it right away. Sooo worth it! Like I said in a different comment I’m not going to give any spoilers but it is AMAZING! I would love it if you write another SPIES AND THEIVES STORY; and hopefully sometime in the future you will. But for now I will bid you adieu, and just say thank you.
I stayed up till 1 reading it
Just finished too!!! Great stroy, hope they see each other in later books too!!!!
-ally cat
Literally, just finished it also! It was so awesome! I want to talk all about it, but a bunch of people still need to read it. But, you’re all going to love it, no doubt! Happy Reading!!!
Omg me 2! Set my alarm to midnight so I could buy and read it! I am so obsessed, but aren’t we all?!? It was AMAZING! Plz, write a sequel, Ally!
it was really good i hope you make more spies and theives stories.
I loved it too!!! I preordered it on my nook and then this morning when I turned it on I got soo excited when it started downloading!!! I read and finished it in the middle of class so when I finished I really wanted to scream in class cause it was soooo awesome!!! I don’t want to spoil anything since its the first day its out I will leave it at that, can’t wait for more!!!!
I totally agree….. I read the whole thing as soon as I could. The only thing that could have made it better was if Zach was in it…lol
From TX, and read it in iBooks!!! Absolutely loved it! I love the sheer brilliance of mixing both the words. *Spoiler* and Aunt Abby giving Kat a card for Gallagher Girls!!!! Nearly woke my parents up with the excitement of Kat entering the spy world as well :3 LOVED IT AND GAVE YOU FIVE STARS ON REVIEW FOR iBOOKS!!! Keep on inspiring with your awesome stories and I cannot wait for the next Gallagher book <3
You’re making me panic. Since I don’t have any of those digital thingamabobs, I’m going to have to wait for days until it goes to gallaghergirls.com. Argh.
i know!! i dont have a kindle or an ipod so i have to wait too
Wait, you can get it on your ipod? Too bad I have no wifi.
You can download a Kindle app from amazon on to Ur computer if u have an account and trust me its worth it to get an account so u can read the Novella/ Book
OMG! Like best book ever!!! I hope u make more!!!
Thank you soo much Ally! I just downloaded it from the iBookstore:) I hope you make more novellas in the future! Again THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!:)
Is PERFECT SCOUNDRELS some how also connected to the GG books (sorry 4 the spelling)
Do you know when or if it will be available in Australia as I really want to read because I love both these series and would be absolutely ecstatic to read it. <3
Try from the spies and thrives website, there is a PDF there you can download and read, that’ts what I did when I couldn’t get it anywhere else, I’m from Aus too.
It’s not available in the Philippines, and it’s not yet posted on the site.
I really want to read this. Waiting is really torture.
Yeah, when is it going to be posted on the site?
I know, I even checked during advisment( a.k.a homeroom)
Still not on the site.
Live in the Bahamas and would like to read but only seems to be available in the States. Is that going to change or am I just not going to be able to receive it.
I am from honduras and the link that is given by emma: http://spiesandthieves.com/pdf/Double_Crossed.pdf

EEEEEEE!!! Going to buy it right now…..
-ally cat

Yes! Finally!
I just started reading it and I love it! I don’t really follow up on your blog, but will you make this a series, Ms. Carter?
that would be so cool! like a mini series within the books where cammie and bex and the rest of the girls keep meeting unexpectedly with kat, hale, and the heist group! that would be so cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That would be AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Taht would be amazing!
I loved it!!! Great work ally! It was better than I hoped it could be, it was a work of art, way to go ally!

Does anyone know when the next GG book is going to be out?
i know shes working on it, but i thought it would be out by now.
September 2013 if you got the crossover it tells you in the back!
Wow, that was seriously amazing! I started reading at seven this morning and didn’t stop until I was finished! I loved the plot it was so… different yet anticipated at the same time. By anticipate I mean we knew something with hostages was going to happen but I never expected that it was amazing! I love the detail you put in mentioning the masks the gun men wore. Just really awesome book I hope you write more!
I was really looking forward to ready the book
, I live in England and can’t find it anywhere. Is it not coming out in England? Hope it does I LOVE THE GG AND HIEST SOCITY BOOKS, YOUR AMAZING ALLY!!
http://spiesandthieves.com/pdf/Double_Crossed.pdf this link given by emma really works!

x
So excited!!!!
WHY ARE YOU NOT UP ON GALLAGHER ACADEMY YET????????!!!!!!!
it was sooooo good
i hope kat goes to the Gallagher Academy even though i know she wont
but it was so awesome anyway!!!
dear ally,
how do you know all this stuff about spies and thieves? is there something you’re not telling us?
I finished reading it! It makes me want to read GG6 so bad. Ally why didn’t you tell us GG6 would be out in September 2013. Yes that’s right I went to the very back pages. I’m so excited. In this book Hale slightly reminded me if Zach. Well it’s an awesome book I highly recommend you so more.
Omg! that is so cool! i just read your comment and really let out this peep and ran the the kindle! gg6 is going to have me couting the days till school starts back up! that feels so weird!
When does it come out in the UK?
i live in london and have been waiting for this for weeks, but i wont come up anywhere :’(
http://spiesandthieves.com/pdf/Double_Crossed.pdf this link given by emma works
i dont have a kindle or anything
can i get it up on my apple mac computer ?
When can you get it on the gallaghergirls.com website beaches I’m from the uk and I’m guessing the book isn’t available internationally yet and it hasn’t come on my iBookstore either, and I’d like to read it before perfect scoundrels which is also out in two weeks!!
so if you could get it on this blog or something like that so we can all access it please thanks x
you can read it here! http://spiesandthieves.com/pdf/Double_Crossed.pdf
that link was provided by Emma
I can’t wait to start it!
still waiting over here in the UK!!!!!i cant wait 2 read it if its any longer i will DIE!!!!
I read it! IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was awesome! Loved it Ally. Thanks for the greatness ^.^
Hi I was wondering when you might release the first chapter of the new heist society book?
It was so good omg! I was reading it on my phone in between classes haha. I’m in love with the crossing of the spy and thief worlds!
I absolutely LOVED Double Crossed!!!!!!! Thank you so much, Ally!
Everyone’s already read it? I will have to brew until Tuesday. The consequences of not having an ebook. All i caught was a glimpse of it from Amazon.
Thanks! Tears of joy…
it says not available for me since i live in England
All you British (and other nationalities) people who’ve been saying they can’t read it, I feel your pain. I’ve been in the same situation for the whole day.
I’ve found this, though:
http://spiesandthieves.com/
It looks like an official website. I’ve clicked ‘start reading now’, and I’ve got a pdf which has eight chapters, a front cover, a back cover and publicity sample chapters for both Heist Society and LYKY, and looks very much like it’s the whole, real thing (I haven’t had time to read it yet.)
So here you are. I’m hesitating about doing this, because I’m not sure if it counts as illegal downloading (though as the ebook is free…) Ally, if you read this, I can’t really think of ways this could hurt you in the way illegal downloads would, but if I’m wrong, then I’m truly, truly sorry. The website does look both safe and official, though.
To everyone else, I hope this link helps.
Thank you so much! I’d checked on the gallaghergirls website and it still hadn’t been posted yet, so when I saw this I was literally screaming for joy!
Ally, this book was amazing! Thank you so much for this free novella I really enjoyed it!
Can’t wait for February!!!
I would just like to leave a thank you post for MC. Thank you sooo much for your all your help!!!! I really appreciate the link that you sent so that I could read it this wonderful novella. It means a lot that they are nice people out there that help others out. If you had not sent this link countless people would not be able to enjoy this including me
Thank you so much, Ally!!!! It was SO GOOD!!! I read it in school today (don’t tell my history teacher…)! I loved it!!!!!
Oh My God I just finished it and it was AMAZING! Everything was just so… realistic and it was a perfect meeting of the two series. The only thing that confuses me, though, is it said that both of Hale’s parents were at the social gala but in HS, they were apparently both missing. How does that work?
For everyone who doesn’t have an e-reader: I have a solution! You can download a free Nook app for your computer from Barnes & Noble and read the Nook version of Double Crossed through that. I don’t have a Nook or anything so I set up an account and this worked perfectly.
You can do the same with Amazon kindle but if your not in America often nook will not be available.
OMG SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO EXCITED!!!!!!!
Just got it, can’t wait
I tried to stay up unti midnight! But I fell asleep! And then I had to go to school! So now I’m reading it after my homework! I LOVE IT!!!
I live in England and i cant get it!
when is it going to. Be available?
I was reading Double Crossed while I was on the treadmill and almost fell off because I was like dkjbvhjbfsnfbvgyvhfvnkjvfbhkdvnkjub so many times. Ahhhh!!! I love it!
<3 Thank You Ally!
Is it available in Canada? I checked on my
Sony reader, but I can’t find it!
Try the website spies and theives, a free PDF is available there.
I LOVED double-crossed. I want to read more spies and thieves crossovers. Can’t wait for GG6, Perfect Scoundrels, and more spies and thieves crossovers…….PLEASE write more.
YAAAAYYYYY!!!!!! it is finally available in New Zealand.
Cant wait to read it!!!
Reading it right now! I love it!
the only problem I have with this book is that it was too short. But other than that, I absolutly LOVED it!
when is this out in australia!! please please release it in australia! i have been counting down the days and now i cant get it. when will it be up on gallagher girls?
im from australia too and just found out that you can read it online here (: http://spiesandthieves.com/pdf/Double_Crossed.pdf
hope that helps x
Double crossed was so amazing
Double crossed was so amazing
I have been flipping out about Double Crossed since I knew it existed, and it’s finally here!!!!!! It’s going to be the best novella ever!! I’ve been annoying my entire family about it since six o’clock in the morning I’m so excited!!!!
*fan girl shriek*
That moment when you go to the very end of Double-Crossed, and see the advertisement for the Gallagher Girls books, and there is a tiny bubble that says: Look for book 6 in September 2013! WHAT!? Coming off the wonderful reading of Double-Crossed and getting this wonderful news at the end? Emotional overload.
Omg… sooooooo excited. I think september is a good time for GG6 to come out. Going to be a freshman in high school. Thought it come out later. But I was hoping for earlier which I got.
It was a VERY GOOOOOOOD book!!! AHHHH its great! i cant wait til Perfect Scoundrels =]
was this a one time thing or are you going to make a whole other series about it? It’s cool, the Idea about Kat and the gallagher girls teaming up!
AMAZING!!
Just finished reading and oh my gosh…Kat better seriously consider because how cool would that be?
Love the new spies web! Love Double Crossed! Looking forward for Perfect Scoundrels!!
Dear Ms. Carter,
I just read “Double-Crossed”.
It was excellent. Thank you for making it a free download!
From,
Caroline
The first thought in my mind as I read the last sentence was “ally what are you up to?!?!?!?” Anyone else who has finished double crossed, reply to this cause in freaking out!!
OMG!!!! That was soooooo good!! Freaking out too Rose!!
I LOVED DOUBLE CROSSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AND FOR THE RECORD, I THINK HALE AND MACEY WOULD BE GREAT TOGETHER THEY FLIRT SO NATURALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry, Kat.
NOOOOOO!!!!! Kat and Hale HAVE to stay together! Macy’s with Preston, remember?
GALLAGHER GIRLS 6 COMING OUT SEPTEMBER 2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!p. 82 of Double Crossed look for the bubble it says it in double crossed!!!!!!!!!I AM FREAKING OUT SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH I CANT WAIT FOR ZACH AND CAMMIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I haven’t read the new GG book, or the new Heist Society book, do I have to read those before I can read double crossed?
It’ll spoil a few things if you read Double Crossed first
Ok thank you, I’ll read the other books first then!!
Am I the only one who doesn’t want Kat to go to Gallagher Academy?
No you are not! I love Kat, and I love the Gallagher girls, but I can’t see Kat going to Gallagher Academy. I think that they would make awesome friends, and might know each others secrets, but Kat is a thief. Not a spy.
I just can’t see her permanently working on the right side of the law, it just doesn’t fit!
Exactly! Kat may be a good thief but she is still a thief.
I disagree! Kat’s always wanted to be away from crime, but she is so good so Hale and Gabrielle keep dragging her back in. Think of how good she’d be if she went to Gallagher!! Remember, not all Gallagher Girls turned out to be spies. Just look at Zach’s mom!
Okay… You have a good point. But Hale and Gabrielle only dragged her back in to save her dad. She stayed in. Like I said she was a GOOD thief. She would be awesome in Gallagher Academy… But she isn’t a Gallagher Girl. I love her but I like her as she is.
I totally agree.
Sheer genius, Ally.
I just read it and I think it was amazing. Best novella ever. You know what I think, Liz and Simon could totally be boyfriend and girlfriend. Literally just of thought that.
Best couple ever!…Next to Cammie and Zack and Kat and Hale that is….but they are perfect for each other! I can see them now sitting at a table at a little cafe, both trying not to get burnt as they discuss the their latest hacking endeavors
That would be awesome! I can see it now….
They would be the cutest (accident-prone) couple!
DEFINITELY, they would get along so well although long walks on the beach might not be the best idea seeing how they burn!
That’s okay though! Moonlight walks are much more romantic!
yes!
OH MY GOSH!!!!!!! I do not even know how to describe how awesome this was!!!!!! I LOVED!!!! Put off doing hours worth of homework just to read this! And it was absolutely worth it!!!!!!! Thanks for making my week Ally!!!!!
WOW ! I was so blown away. I would be thrilled to read about kat coming to the GGA ! you did such an amazing job on this . so sad it cant be in actual book form! Most authors I don’t feel could have done a better job crossing these lives together. Gosh ally is it possible if you could pretty please never stop writing their stories? seriously your books keep me happy:)
I disagree! Kat’s always wanted to be away from crime, but she is so good so Hale and Gabrielle keep dragging her back in. Think of how good she’d be if she went to Gallagher!! Remember, not all Gallagher Girls turned out to be spies. Just look at Zach’s mom!
I can’t wait to see what fics are gonna come out of this. ^^ Gosh this is the best freaking crossover I’ve read. From the way the two worlds just seem naturally to be there like there wasn’t any distinction from the two and how it all just blends so well….I LOVED IT! =D Gonna read it twice and tons of times!
When is the 6th Gallagher Girl book coming out? i can’t wait!
OMG! If anyone saw the very last part, where it advertised for Heist Society and Gallagher Girls, after the sneak peeks for both, it said something about GG6 and september… XD
OMG!!! Double-Crossed was AMAZING!!!!! I can’t wait to see what happens next. I loved the ending so much!
Ally….major Kudos! I loved this!! I hope you seriously consider doing more cross overs
Thanks for this special treat. Patiently awaiting HS3 and GG6
Just finished reading Double-Crossed in less than an hour!
)))
It was so well written and exciting! The ending is so suspenseful ahhhh!
I can’t wait for more of your writing! Please do more
JUst finished the book (for the 3rd time) (in the last hour) so so so great i hope you do more mash ups like this and make them longer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 omg i cant wait just cant to read more of your books. i love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love the book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you so much ally cant wait to hear more from you
i just finished reading!!! arrgh. the ending. i want to know what happens next know. but i guess it’s good to just leave it there.
PLEASE MAKE PERFECT SCOUDRELS AN EBOOK! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!!
I read it and it was AMAZING! I cant wait to read Perfect Scoundrels!
One of the best books I ever read !!!! So glad I got it .
My life would be perfect If I could read a novella like that every day! I love your books soooooo much!!!!!!!
Wait. When did Hale and Kat start KISSING???
Why is the PDF file on Spies and Thieves not working anymore? Or at least on my computer….
Never mind. My sister informed me that PDF don’t work on this computer….
LOVED THIS NOVELLA!!! I hope for more stories like this….how cool would it be if Bex, Liz, Angus, and Gabriella all meet?
just an idea
Can’t wait for Perfect Scoundrels and Gallagher Girls 6.
Awesome as usual! I loved it!!!!!!! I hope that they will meet again
Just finished reading Double Crossed for the second time-amazing, can’t wait to read Perfect Scoundrels and GG6!!
great!!!!!
I LOVED IT SOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!! and do you think you might combine the two series later? i think it would be interesting but its fine if you cant answer because it might ruin the suspense or whatever
<3
OMG I loved Double Crossed it took me two days and it was amazing. The ebook was so good one of you best works ally and so much humor from your other books.
eu adoreeii o livro e fiquei imaginado a Kat na academia Gallagher! eu anida me surpreendo com suas historias maravilhosas e como você sabe preder alguém na historia
Just finished reading it, it was a lovely way to spend the wee hours of the morning
. Thank you so much for putting out a book that draws you in. It’s such a nice change from the satirical diatribes on life. Looking forward to all future books!
Omg I have read double crossed and love it!!!!!!! Now that the characters have met and know each other will u bring them into GG6? Or are u going to carry on writing another novella like part 2? Because I really want to see if Kat goes to the Gallagher academy!
Oh fiddlesticks! Why can’t I own a nook?
I bet the crossover is fantastic, I wish I could read it
i like ally carter’s books so much, can’t wait until gallagher girls #6
