About this ebook

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Nicolas Fox is a charming con man and master thief on the run. Kate O’Hare is the FBI agent who is hot on his trail. At least that’s what everyone thinks. In reality, Fox and O’Hare are secretly working together to bring down super-criminals the law can’t touch. Criminals like brutal casino magnate Evan Trace.
 
Evan Trace is running a money-laundering operation through his casino in Macau. Some of his best customers are mobsters, dictators, and global terrorists. Nick and Kate will have to go deep undercover as high-stakes gamblers, wagering millions of dollars—and their lives—in an attempt to topple Trace’s empire.
 
It’s a scam that will take Fox and O’Hare from the Las Vegas strip, to the sun-soaked beaches of Oahu’s North Shore, and into the dark back alleys of Macau. Their only backup—a self-absorbed actor, a Somali pirate, and Kate’s father, an ex-soldier who believes a rocket launcher is the best way to solve every problem. What could possibly go wrong?

Ratings and reviews

Jake, Kate's dad (retired military), starts off the mayhem during his vacation, while visiting another retired vet; he has to hide out in a jungle to save his life! Money laundering in casinos are Kate and Nicks focus this time around. The games aren't only at the tables, the cons get more and more involved! Laugh out loud antics, familiar supporting characters, and the hint of romance lead to an enjoyable reading experience! It is a cliffhanger. Book free for honest review.

Captivating. Imaginative. Creative. Mysterious. Suspenseful. Full of life and adventure, as well as a burning romance. A story that tells of values that contradict with instincts and comfort zones. Living on the edge, fear of the outcomes, yet doesn't stop because deep down there is a love of adventure and challenges. Risks taken not only for the justice of the country(s) but for self preservation and the dire need to protect those they love. A book worth rereading.

Kate and Nick are perfect. When they make the movies...and they should make the movies, I hope and pray that the casting director isn't nuts and actually does homework and reads the books!
