"When single father Danny Goodman suddenly finds himself unable to afford the private school his teenage daughter adores, he has no one to turn to for financial support. In what seems like a stroke of brilliant luck, Danny meets Thomas Galvin, the father of his daughter's new best friend, who also happens to be one of the wealthiest men in Boston. Galvin is aware of Danny's situation and out of the blue offers a $50,000 loan to help Danny cover his daughter's tuition. Uncomfortable but desperate, Danny takes the money, promising to pay Galvin back. What transpires is something Danny never imagined. The moment the money is wired into his account, the DEA comes knocking on his door. Danny's impossible choice: an indictment for accepting drug money that he can't afford to fight in court, or an unthinkably treacherous undercover assignment helping the government get close to his new best friend. As Danny begins to lie to everyone in his life, including those he loves most in the world, he must decide once and for all who the real enemy is or risk losing everything-and everyone-that matters to him"--… (more)

Thriller

Love Finder. The endings are never what you expect. ( )

Quick reading, but quite forgettable. Fun read fast paced. However, belief must be suspended at times. Characters are believable and the two main guys seem to grow on each other. The plot is fun, but I kept wondering when it would end. Overall, the book kept my interest and I enjoyed it...but forgot it within a week. ( )

Didn't much care for it at first (goodness, up to half way); too far-fetched, too much about the annoying teenage girl(s), etc. But, all along it was intriguing enough, decent characters, pretty good twists, and sooo easily readable! The second half got much better, not exactly more plausible, maybe just more fun. Not bad. ( )

Joseph Finder is one of my favorite authors. Having said that, this book had mixed reviews so I went into it without too high of expectations. Maybe it’s just me, but I thought this book was great. It was just as good if not even better than the other Finder books I’ve read. ( )
