Payback is a mystery book and interesting twist on the classic Robin Hood, this team of foxes steal from the rich and give to the poor. They are a sensation online and when Tom gets recruited, he can’t help but bring trouble. The descriptions of the characters and setting of the are amazing. The theme in this book brings a sense of questioning into what was going to happen next. I would recommend this for people the ages of 11-14.
