Miranda Moreau

Miranda, a character in The Heist: Monaco book, is Marguerite's ex-girlfriend and a potential member of your crew. She is first seen in Chapter 6.

Appearance

Miranda has brown hair, brown eyes and tan skin. She wears a white collared blouse and a navy skirt. Her hair is styled in a bun.

Personality

If you chose to recruit Miranda, it is revealed that she spent her life around rich people and has learnt to fit in with them, making her manipulative at times. Miranda mentions that she is afraid of opening herself up to people for the fear of getting hurt, implying this happened between her and Princess Marguerite. Due to this, she doesn't let people see her true self. If Sybil is also recruited, she notes that Miranda has sadness inside her, not unlike the rich.

Relationships

Princess Marguerite

Princess Marguerite is her childhood friend. However, if you recruited Miranda, it is implied in Chapter 8 that they used to be romantically involved before Princess Marguerite got engaged to Carlisle. It is shown that Miranda still has feelings for her and it is noted by your character that Marguerite still cares for her, despite the engagement. Marguerite asks her to come back to court and stop living so dangerously. They kiss in Chapter 14 if Miranda is part of your crew.

Your Character

You can choose to recruit either Miranda or Peter to act as your crew's grifter. If she is recruited, you have the option to learn grifting from her in a premium scene of Chapter 8. She also figures out Ulrich's tell during the rounds of Texas Hold'em and tells you that it's his vein in his neck, which bulges when he's bluffing and his blood pressure rises.

If you do not recruit her in this heist, in your "happy ending", she is a part of one of your international teams and you can have her and her team go after the Cordonian Royal Jewels next.

Lena Ortiz

If Lena is part of your crew, she correctly guesses Lena is the crew's enforcer, noting her rustic taste in clothing, and says fashion isn't one of her assets. Lena says she insults like a rich girl, and calls Miranda "princess", to which Miranda says manners aren't part of her assets either. In Chapter 15, Miranda pushes Lena to pursue "aggressive negotiations" against the guards, and uses her stilettos to strike at them during your escape.

Niles Edison

If Niles is part of your crew, he offers to swipe Marguerite's engagement ring off her finger for Miranda.

Sybil

If Sybil is part of your crew, she offers Marguerite a bottle of top-shelf champagne that she swiped from the royal family's reserved table at the Royal Ruby Casino to make Miranda less sad. Miranda tells her that it is surprisingly sweet of Sybil to offer, even though she is not the type to drown her sorrows with alcohol.
