I have read other books by Janet but this is my first Fox and O'Hare novel. After finishing this book I will have to go back and check out books one and two in this series. I really loved the witty banter between Kate and Nick. They make a good duo. Nick is a man of many faces and surprises. This is why I liked him. I never knew what he would do next. Kate could stand up to Nick and dish out just as much as he gave her. So they are equally matched. They kind of reminded me of Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp in the movie, The Tourist. Kate and Nick because they worked so well together as the story progressed they seemed to pick up speed. Each one trying to catch the other one and maybe up each other too. However Nick had the upper hand. All the different names that he came up with were funny. Another thing that I liked about this book is that you can not tell where one author stopped and the other one picked up. The heists were fine but how Kate and Nick solved it was the entertaining part. I almost hope that they never hook up because the cat and mouse game these two play scores big.

Not a bad mystery. Not as good as her solo books.

Another Nick and Kate scheme for the greater good. Enjoying the relationship as it grows between the two MCs. Kate still is as bad ass as ever and their crew lightens the book and adds some humor and originality. This scheme included hidden treasure and a dangerous killer.  Sometimes it feels a little mission impossible or oceans eleven-ish but on a must more scaled down version.  Quick easy read

Not bad but it felt short. Also I totally imagined Rayna as the person playing Rayna on Agents of SHIELD.

Another fun, funny read from Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg in the Fox and O'Hare series. Kate O'Hare has one job, to keep internationally wanted criminal Nick Fox from committing his own heists while he assists Kate in cons that bring down some of the world's most dangerous criminals. But when Nick is implicated in a series of art thefts Kate will need to clear his name before they can begin their next assignment. With the help of Kate's father and a band of colorful characters, Nick and Kate work another con to bring down a drug lord. I love the humor, the banter between the characters and how original each of the cons are. Great read!
