Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg, bestselling authors of The Heist, return in this action-packed, exciting adventure featuring master con artist Nicolas Fox and die-hard FBI agent Kate O’Hare. And this time around, things go from hot to nuclear when government secrets are on the line.

 
Internationally renowned thief and con artist Nicolas Fox is famous for running elaborate and daring scams. His greatest con of all: convincing the FBI to team him up with the only person who has ever caught him, and the only woman to ever capture his attention, Special Agent Kate O’Hare. Together they’ll go undercover to swindle and catch the world’s most wanted—and untouchable—criminals.
 
Their newest target is Carter Grove, a former White House chief of staff and the ruthless leader of a private security agency. Grove has stolen a rare Chinese artifact from the Smithsonian, a crime that will torpedo U.S. relations with China if it ever becomes public. Nick and Kate must work under the radar—and against the clock—to devise a plan to steal the piece back. Confronting Grove’s elite assassins, Nick and Kate rely on the skills of their ragtag crew, including a flamboyant actor, a Geek Squad techie, and a band of AARP-card-carrying mercenaries led by none other than Kate’s dad.
 
A daring heist and a deadly chase lead Nick and Kate from Washington, D.C., to Shanghai, from the highlands of Scotland to the underbelly of Montreal. But it’ll take more than death threats, trained henchmen, sleepless nights, and the fate of a dynasty’s priceless heirloom to outsmart Fox and O’Hare.
BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg's The Job.

An enjoyable action-adventure with a well-paced plot and great characters.

It's the second Evanovich novel that I've read and I found it much better than the first (Metro Girl). ( )

I love Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg together. This is such a fun series with Kate O'Hare "chasing" Nick Fox all over the world. Looking forward to reading the rest of the series. ( )
  Shauna_Morrison | Jul 22, 2023 |
All these novels are a bit cheesy and easy-reading, with lots of silly but fun dialogue and capers. This book is the second in the Kate O'Hare (FBI agent) and Nick Fox (international thief) series. Definitely enjoyable -- good beach reading -- but nothing that will make you think. ( )

Once again Janet Evanovich had me reading book cover to cover in one day. Love her books. ( )
