By Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg
Book One in the Fox and O'Hare series
Kate O'Hare is a gung-ho FBI agent with a military background and a burning desire to capture wanted conman Nicolas Fox. Fox has been a thorn in her side for a long time, always managing to elude her best efforts and taunting her with Toblerone candy bars and otherwise making her look like a fool.
By stepping up her game in a drastic and dangerous way, Kate finally nails Nick and he is locked up until his trial. The day of his trial, Nick escapes while using the courthouse men's room. Imagine Kate's astonishment at Nick once again being on the loose after all the months she spent trying to capture him. Imagine her even greater astonishment when she learns his escape was engineered by her boss at the FBI and by the deputy director of the FBI.
Did Nick Fox somehow corrupt two top FBI officials? No. It is all part of a plan to track down and capture some of the worst criminals in the world, using Nick's genius at pulling off brilliant heists and complex scams. And they want Kate to be part of the operation. Which means she will be working very closely with the man who has been getting under her skin for a very long time. And it doesn't help that Nick is witty, charming and very handsome.
This book was so much fun! I thoroughly enjoyed it. The heists are complicated and wild and Kate and Nick have a spicy and uncertain relationship. I'm sorry I am just now discovering this fun and exciting series which began with this novel in 2013.
