The Unholy Three by Tod Robbins audiobook.

Genre: thriller

Three sideshow outcasts decide the carnival is too small for their ambitions. Tweedledee, a vicious little man with a taste for cruelty, has the hunger to command. Hercules, the strongman, supplies the muscle and the fearsome reputation. And Professor Echo, a gifted ventriloquist with nerves stretched thin, brings the one talent the others lack: a voice that can become anyone's. When Echo slips into the disguise of a harmless old woman, 'Granny' O'Grady, the trio vanishes into the city and opens a pet shop that caters to wealthy clients. Parrots, puppies, and deliveries become their perfect cover, letting them study fine homes, learn routines, and strike where it hurts. But the gang's careful act is complicated by Rosie, a young pickpocket tied to Echo by affection and obligation, and by Hector, an honest shop clerk who sees only kindness in the wrong people. As the thefts grow bolder and suspicion closes in, jealousy and resentment threaten to break the partnership from within, forcing Echo to choose between loyalty to his partners and the faint pull of his own conscience.
