"Heist Society," published last year by Hyperion books, revolves around a teenage girl balancing school and her family's criminal activities.
In the novel, the story is triggered by powerful mobster being robbed of his priceless art collection -- with the girl's father as the main suspect -- and the protagonist responding by assembling a crew to steal it back, reports variety.com.
Barrymore has previously produced films like "How to Be Single" and "He's Just Not That into You".
