Third in the series but can be read as a stand alone. Good story and author.

Ty Hauck is a private security investigator. Ty was flipping through television channels when he came upon a heard line breaking story…a family was killed in their home, in what authorities are reporting seems to be a break-in gone terribly wrong. Ty is shocked not for the heinous crime but because he knew the wife. She was an old, dear friend.

Marc Glassman worked in Wall Street. He was a good family man. So why was his family killed? That is the million dollar question. Ty gets involved. As Ty starts investigating the killing of the Glassman family he realized that their death is all part of a huge international conspiracy. This is where Naomi Blum, an agent for the United States Department of Treasury step in to help on the case.

Reckless is the fourth book by author, Andrew Gross. Just like his first book. I still can’t get enough of Mr. Gross. This story had a lot of strong characters who could pull off a strong storyline. Ty had a wide range of emotions. Naomi and Ty worked well as a team. They bounced off each other. I read how Mr. Gross came up with the concept for this book and found it interesting, scary and sad, all at the same time. This is because the murder if the Glassman family was taken from actual events. This book will take readers on a fast-paced journey of intrigue, suspense, and every where from New York to Europe. So sit back relax and enjoy. This book will leave you Reckless for more Andrew Gross!

Reckless is a solid thriller with a compelling plot that fits almost too comfortably into the economic climate of our times. The fast paced, yet believable story is underpinned by interesting characters that put a face on events that would otherwise be lost in the scrolling headlines. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys conspiracy thrillers. Reckless is tailor made to the new interconnected world we live in.

This is a fun, suspenseful read with likeable characters and an interesting storyline that isn't hard to follow. I'd like to read more by this author. I understand he has worked with James Patterson, but based on this book, I think he is better. This booked reminded me of David Baldacci's writing.

I read Andrew Gross and James Patterson's books that they co-wrote but this is the second book I read by Andrew Gross as a solo author. I enjoyed it very much.

Great book, really pulls you in right from the start. Really wish I knew more about (or cared more about) financial stuff as that is what the whole books premise is, but overall a great quick read.

  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
