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!

Jessica says

ArielAngel4 says
January 22, 2013 at 4:57 amI 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? 🙁 🙁
Emz says
January 22, 2013 at 5:42 pmI’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.

January 22, 2013 at 1:48 amI 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 heart Zach says
January 23, 2013 at 8:32 amI 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
Jocelyn Esparza says
January 22, 2013 at 1:54 amFrom TX, and read it in iBooks!!! Absolutely loved it!

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

ArielAngel4 says

Kayla says
January 22, 2013 at 9:49 amWow, 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!
Ellie says
January 22, 2013 at 11:19 amI 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!!

how do you know all this stuff about spies and thieves? is there something you’re not telling us?
Melissa says
January 22, 2013 at 12:40 pmI 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.
cat says

Allison says
January 22, 2013 at 2:38 pmIt 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!
Niki says
January 22, 2013 at 3:14 pmI absolutely LOVED Double Crossed!!!!!!! Thank you so much, Ally!
Pianist707 says
January 22, 2013 at 3:54 pmEveryone’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.
Pianist707 says
January 23, 2013 at 3:27 pmThanks! Tears of joy…
Shannon says
January 22, 2013 at 4:26 pmit says not available for me since i live in England 🙁
MC says
January 22, 2013 at 4:57 pmAll 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.
British Bombshell says
January 23, 2013 at 1:55 pmThank 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!!! 🙂
Zainab says
January 24, 2013 at 6:53 pmI 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 😀
Evie says
January 22, 2013 at 5:13 pmThank you so much, Ally!!!! It was SO GOOD!!! I read it in school today (don’t tell my history teacher…)! I loved it!!!!!
THAT_WRITER_GIRL says
January 22, 2013 at 5:15 pmOh 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?
Tuesdays! says
January 22, 2013 at 5:26 pmFor 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.
ArielAngel4 says
January 25, 2013 at 4:44 pmYou can do the same with Amazon kindle but if your not in America often nook will not be available.
Lexa says
January 22, 2013 at 5:34 pmOMG SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO EXCITED!!!!!!!

Jemima says
January 22, 2013 at 6:22 pmI live in England and i cant get it! 🙁 when is it going to. Be available?
Ari says
January 22, 2013 at 6:24 pmI 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!
Eh? says
January 22, 2013 at 6:51 pmIs it available in Canada? I checked on my
Sony reader, but I can’t find it!
ArielAngel4 says
January 25, 2013 at 4:45 pmTry the website spies and theives, a free PDF is available there.
Anonymous says
January 22, 2013 at 6:54 pmI 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. 🙂 🙂
