What are some good historical fiction novels about a clever thief? Robin Hood type, spy, rogue, etc always in over his head? Could be medieval all the way up to WW2.
You’re either going to love it or hate it, but check out Confessions of the Fox by Jordy Rosenberg. It’s a reimagining of the historical characters behind the Threepenny Opera. I loved it.

If you’re okay with a bit of fantasy, then:
The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch.
Theft of Swords by Michael J. Sullivan.
The great train robbery by Michael Crichton
