The Charlie McCabe series is Craig Schaefer’s foray into straight crime fiction, published through Amazon’s Thomas & Mercer imprint. The two books follow Charlie McCabe, a skilled thief who gets pulled into increasingly dangerous jobs where the people hiring her may be more dangerous than the heists themselves.

Starting with The Loot in 2019 and followed by The Insider in 2020, the series trades the supernatural elements of Schaefer’s other work for taut, fast-paced heist fiction. Readers who enjoy clever protagonists working through elaborate schemes will find a lot to like here, even if they have never read Schaefer’s fantasy novels.
