My Thoughts:
This book is brilliant ! The las few books that I have read have been ok ish, and some I haven’t even finished, so a book like Royal Flush is just what I needed.
Edward de Jersey is a crook, but has gone straight. He is now out of luck due to a colapse of an internet investmnet which means he is now broke. So what he does is gets together with his old band of merry men and plans the biggest heist ever. He plans to steal the crown jewels. Well do they get away with it ?
The whole operation of this heist is brilliantly worked out by Lynda la Plante. I could not put this book down and I was with the characters everstep of the way and was willing them to get away it. A lot of thought has gone into this book by Ms Plante for her to devise the robbery and to bring the characters to life. Also she makes the stealing of the crown jewels quite possible.
If you have ever read ‘Widows’ or seen the tv series this book is in the same vain., but I would say better. If you want to read something to keep you on your toes and a thumping good read then this is the book for you.
5 stars ! ( )
