NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg, bestselling authors of The Heist,
return in this action-packed, exciting adventure featuring master con
artist Nicolas Fox and die-hard FBI agent Kate O'Hare. And this time
around, things go from hot to nuclear when government secrets are on the
line.
Internationally renowned thief and con artist Nicolas Fox is famous for
running elaborate and daring scams. His greatest con of all: convincing
the FBI to team him up with the only person who has ever caught him, and
the only woman to ever capture his attention, Special Agent Kate O'Hare.
Together they'll go undercover to swindle and catch the world's most
wanted--and untouchable--criminals.
Their newest target is Carter Grove, a former White House chief of staff
and the ruthless leader of a private security agency. Grove has stolen a
rare Chinese artifact from the Smithsonian, a crime that will torpedo
U.S. relations with China if it ever becomes public. Nick and Kate must
work under the radar--and against the clock--to devise a plan to steal
the piece back. Confronting Grove's elite assassins, Nick and Kate rely
on the skills of their ragtag crew, including a flamboyant actor, a Geek
Squad techie, and a band of AARP-card-carrying mercenaries led by none
other than Kate's dad.
A daring heist and a deadly chase lead Nick and Kate from Washington,
D.C., to Shanghai, from the highlands of Scotland to the underbelly of
Montreal. But it'll take more than death threats, trained henchmen,
sleepless nights, and the fate of a dynasty's priceless heirloom to
outsmart Fox and O'Hare.
