Summary of Six of Crows

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. In the bustling, treacherous city of Ketterdam, where wealth and power can be bought for the right price, criminal prodigy Kaz Brekker reigns supreme. Known for his cunning, ruthlessness, and unmatched strategic mind, Kaz is approached with an opportunity that promises unimaginable riches—but the mission is deadly, and failure means certain death. He cannot succeed alone, and so he assembles a crew of six extraordinary outcasts, each carrying their own dangerous skills and personal demons. Among them is a convict fueled by vengeance, a sharpshooter who cannot resist high-stakes wagers, a runaway with a gilded past, a mysterious spy known only as the Wraith, a Heartrender wielding dark magic to survive the city’s slums, and a thief whose uncanny ability to escape makes her indispensable. Bound together by circumstance and ambition, this ragtag group must navigate the perilous underworld, trusting each other just enough to execute an impossible heist that could reshape the balance of power in Ketterdam. As tensions rise and old wounds threaten to tear the crew apart, loyalty and survival are tested at every turn. Each member’s past claws at them, and personal vendettas collide with the mission’s stakes. The heist demands precision, cunning, and a willingness to sacrifice everything, even relationships and morality, for the promise of fortune. With danger lurking in every shadow and betrayal a constant threat, Kaz’s crew must pull off the unthinkable. Success could secure them wealth and power beyond imagining, but failure—or mistrust within the group—could spell destruction not only for them but for the city itself. Six of Crows is a gripping, high-stakes tale of crime, camaraderie, and survival, where six flawed, fascinating outcasts walk the razor’s edge between triumph and disaster.
