The Greater of Two Evils — Jane Thornley

When a powerful Russian client spends thousands of dollars in her London gallery, Phoebe suspects he has more than priceless carpets on his mind. Blackmail wasn't on her radar. Yet Yagar Arkangelesky will stop at nothing to force Phoebe to steal her friend's, Sir Rupert Fox's, rare artifact collection, and thus position himself at the pinnacle of the European black market. Kidnap, murder, destruction of property--all the price of success in Yagar's eyes. That leaves Phoebe to infiltrate Rupert's estate on the night of his famed costume ball while playing multiple roles and wielding weapons of her own. In order to thwart the heist of the century, a woman needs to take command.
