The FBI had one demand when they secretly teamed up Special Agent Kate O’Hare with charming con man Nicolas Fox - bring down the world’s most-wanted and untouchable felons. This time it’s the brutal leader of a global drug-smuggling empire. The FBI doesn’t know what their target looks like, where he is or how to find him but Nick Fox has a few tricks up his sleeve to roust this particular Knipschildt chocolate–loving drug lord.
From the streets of Nashville to the back alleys of Lisbon, from the rooftops of Istanbul to the middle of the Thames, Nick and Kate chase their mark. When they find themselves pitted against a psychopathic bodyguard and a Portuguese enforcer who gets advice from a pickled head, they decide it’s time to enlist some special talent - talent like a machete-wielding Somali pirate, a self-absorbed actor, an Oscar-winning special effects artist and Kate’s father Jake, a retired Special Forces operative. Together they could help make this Fox and O’Hare’s biggest win yet ... if they survive.
Nick is a former con man who is supposed to be working with Kate, an FBI agent, to help the FBI catch the most-wanted criminals. But evidence shows that he has been back to his old tricks again ... or has he? This leads Nick and Kate on a quest to capture a sadistic drug lord who has disappeared off the face of the earth.
Nick and Kate put together their team which includes Jake, Kate's dad, along with his elderly cronies, an actor who takes his parts too seriously, a dad who build treehouses and an awarding winning special effects artist who is on the brink of bankruptcy. Can they pull it off?
This is the third in the Fox and O'Hare series ... I've read all three plus a novella and enjoyed them. I liked this book and the story ... it was interesting to see how they pulled this scam together. Yes, it's far-fetched at times so I had to leave my sense of belief at the door and go with it ... and I was okay with that. I liked the writing style and thought it flowed well and found it amusing.
I liked Kate and Nick and enjoyed their interactions and banters. I also enjoyed the interactions between Kate and Jake, her dad.. The supporting characters were likeable too such as Willie (the big-busted redneck) and Boyd (the actor who really gets into his roles).
I'd recommend this book.
