Double-Crossed

December 11, 2012 by Ally Carter 281 Comments

It’s here!  The day where I can finally tell you all about my super-secret project!  Aka: Double-Crossed: A Spies and Thieves Novella.

 

Macey McHenry—Glamorous society girl or spy-in-training?

W.W. Hale V—Heir to an American dynasty or master thief?

There are two sides to every coin. Whether these two can work together is a tossup.

Born into privilege, Macey and Hale are experts at mingling with the upper class. But even if they’ve never raised an eyebrow at the glitz, neither teenager has ever felt at home with the glamour.

When Macey and Hale meet at a society gala, the party takes a dangerous turn. Suddenly they’re at the center of a hostage situation, and it’s up to them to stop the thugs from becoming hostile. Will Macey’s spy skills and Hale’s con-man ways be enough to outsmart a ruthless gang? Or will they have to seek out the ultimate inside girl to help?

The worlds of Heist Society and the Gallagher Girls collide in Ally Carter’s fast-paced, high-stakes and tantalizing new story. Get a behind the scenes glimpse as Ally delivers an irresistible thriller that is full of her signature style and savvy twists.

 

What is it?  A novella (something that is longer than a short story but shorter than a novel) where characters from Heist Society and Gallagher Girls meet!

When will it be available:  January 22, 2013

Where will it be available: for now,just in the U.S., but we are offering it to my foreign publishers as well and I have it on good authority that many of them will be publishing it overseas.

Where can you buy it: From most places that sells books (I hope)

What format will it come in:  E-version only.  (Meaning there will be no paperback or hardback.  Only digital copies.  If you don’t have an eReader, rest assured.  Most eBooks can be read on a regular computer with a few simple steps.)

What will it cost?  Nothing!  Yes, that’s right.  This novella will be absolutely free!

Who is in it? Kat, Hale, Aunt Abby and Macey.

Why aren’t Zach and Cammie in it?  Or Liz… Or Bex…:  Because the book takes place between GG5 & GG6 and those characters aren’t around for when this story is happening. Most of them are busy doing other things.

Will you do more of these?  Maybe.  Never say never.

How excited is Ally about this? So freaking excited.

Now, tell me, gang. How excited are you?

 

-Ally

 

PS: EDITED TO ADD…
I can officially confirm that in addition to bookstores and eTailers, DOUBLE-CROSSED will also be available (for free) at thegallagheracademy.com.

    This was really good! I do hope you write more. When I finished it, I was like “What? That’s all?”

    The novella was REALLY good and had me hooked! Thank you for writing a really good story (I loved the idea of your two series colliding) and for making it free. I hope you continue to write this series.

      That would be so cool but Kat is a thief and I don’t really know if she can be a spy. They are both (spies and thieves) different sides of a coin (society).

    Why can’t there be a whole entire book of the two worlds meeting rather than a novella? Can’t it be an entire novel?

    I am very excited I can’t wait to tell my friend who introduced me to the Gallagher Girls. Me and her started reading Heist Society around the same time we are absolutely hooked she’ll probably have heart failure or collapse out of excitement. 🙂

    Please can you write another! it keep me on the edge of my seat till the end. Please make more for it will be smashing. i was disappointed when the GG series ended but when i read this, i was freaking out. It would be cool if Cammie and Kat meet. You are one of my favourite authors in the whole universe and what lies beyond it. i’m only 13 but I love reading, sadly i read too fast, so could you possibly make them more detailed? Keep writing
