Bramble came to the island to rob the rich. Unfortunately, someone beat him to it.
Bramble knows two things about wealthy people: They panic easily. And they pay extremely well.
At a secluded luxury resort crawling with billionaires, venture capitalists, and discreetly corrupt politicians, this calculating con artist runs a beautifully simple grift—whisper that scandal is coming… then charge a nominal fee to make the problem disappear.
It works perfectly… until Lysandra Janeaux shows up.
She's stunning. Calculating. And far too interested in the same marks.
Soon, the two professional opportunists form a dangerous alliance, squeezing six-figure payouts from terrified elites while pretending to trust one another. Where Bramble and Lysandra go, corruption and seduction follow, and success seems guaranteed.
But Lysandra isn't just another grifter. She's been studying her new partner-in-crime.
When the resort erupts into chaos, Bramble realizes too late:
The con he thought he was running… was never his.
In Bramble's world, opportunity is everything. And in every crowd, there's always someone just begging to be taken.
The Lady Who Pulled My Alarm is a funny, sleazy pulp crime novella about grifters, billionaires, betrayal, and the fine art of separating rich people from their money. It is the second entry in The Book of Bramble.
