A review by matosapa
Forty Thieves by Thomas Perry

4.0

The two couples (one private eye and the other a hit team) were well-written and interesting to follow. I had a preference for the detectives since the hit team seemed a bit psychologically "broken" and I loved the banter between the two private eyes.
For me, the story took an unexpected turn about halfway through (it explains the cover which, in the beginning, seemed unrelated to the story I was reading) when a major thread connecting all the characters was revealed but I had no problems with the approach.
Perry is one of my go-to authors because I love his writing and story telling methods. even better is that this was a stand-alone book. Hard to find in this day and age.
