Evanovich, Janet and Goldberg, Lee, The Job. Random House, 2014.
When Nic Fox gets accused of pulling off a sloppy art heists around the world, Kate O'Hare of the FBI is called in to investigate. All the evidence points to Nic. Serena Blake, the person who really committed the crimes, is willing to take the heat and a plea bargain, but Nic and Kate must do something for her first: avenge her brother's violent death. After doing plastic surgery on a known criminal, Serena's brother was tortured and killed. Now, Kate and Nic are sure the criminal know as Dimitrio Violante is the one who killed Serena's brother. To get even, the two must outheist and outwit this violent criminal and his cohorts before they kill Kate and Nic, too. Will Kate and NIc succeed in pulling their most risky endeavor yet?
Kate and Nic are fun, well-developed characters to read about and readers will enjoy the dynamic between the two of them. The plot is well-developed and written, but part of the story, such as pulling off heists for the FBI, might seem a little out there for some people. Fans of Janet Evanovich, Lee Goldberg, mysteries, and supense/adventure, however, will enjoy reading this book.
4 stars, ADULT
