Nick
Fox loves his job. In fact, he loves it a little too much.
Pulling heists and cons on high profile people used to be
solely for monetary gain, now he does it for the thrill of
the chase. For Fox, there's nothing more thrilling than being
chased by a beautiful woman, namely FBI agent Kate O'Hare.
Kate
O'Hare has a problem with her job: Nick Fox. He's been her
main target for years and every time she's gotten close, he's
managed to slip away. To make things worse, the blonde-haired
Casanova has her thinking about him in more than just a professional
fashion.
When
it comes time for their final battle, Kate and Nick both end
up in a situation neither one would've ever expected - working
as a team to take down criminals that are too high-profile
to be touched by public investigative agencies.
Now Nick
and Kate have to play nice and rely on each other's skills
to pull one of the biggest cons ever imagined - one that will
never be known and could get them and everyone involved killed.
When
I saw Evanovich had a new series out, I knew I had to check
it out. I am very glad I did. She and Lee Goldberg have created
a team of characters that, while outside the norm (at least
for Evanovich), are easily the most fun, complex, and easily
memorable. I can't wait for them to continue this series.
Scott Brick does an incredible job making each character easily
recognizable and bringing out the humor and attitude that
saturates the crisp, tart one-liners and epic dialogue battles
between Fox and O'Hare. I highly recommend it to anyone looking
for a little steam in their adventures.
