The Broken Man (Thief's Harvest, #1) by Brandon Jones

SPFBO6

When Josen ran away from a life of wealth and privilege he had one goal in mind: become a legendary thief. It’s turning out to be more dangerous than he could have dreamed. Even his ability to break—to temporarily transform physical materials into other substances—is usually associated only with drug addicts. It’s not the kind of thing a person brags about. Josen is just starting to get his feet underneath him when he gets handed what looks like the perfect chance at an easy score. He should have known better. The perfect job turns into a perfect setup, ending with a friend in chains and half the city on fire. Out of options, Josen and his friends flee to a life he thought he had left behind forever with trouble hot on his heels. Josen is determined to not let his dreams of becoming a thieving legend affect his friends and family. But the longer he struggles to balance his growing sense of responsibility with his thieving ambitions, the more apparent it becomes that the perfect setup is far from over, and Josen’s two worlds are on a violent collision course.
