New In The House

************************************************************

Skyrocket Steele – Ron Goulart: long a fan of Goulart’s work, when James Reasoner showcased this one of Forgotten books, I had to grab it.

and the ebooks:

2: Sound of Silence – Linda Pendleton: long a fan of her work, this was offered free this weekend. Couldn’t resist.

3: Blood Land – R. S. Guthrie: unfamiliar with this author’s work, this was another freebie I’n trying. Looks good and may lead to me buying more. Who Knows. Like i need more books. sigh

4: Gloves Off – a collection of fight fiction. The price was attractive, so I bought.

5: Crime Square – edited by Robert Z. Randisi: a new addition of a book from a publisher gone out of business right after the original release. Available book in ebook and paper.

6: Two of A Kind – Matthew Pizzolato; A collection of western stories.

7: The Heist – Devin Hobbes: a zombie short story I tumbled across.

The Heist – Janet Evanovich & Lee Goldberg

The debut of a fine new series. Authors Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg have combined their talents to give us FBI Special Agent Kate O’Hare and her new partner, con man Nick Fox. It’s especially hard for Kate because she’s spent the last five years chasing Fox and when she finally catches him, he becomes her partner.

Their goal is to chase down criminals, the super wealthy, gotten so because of their own cons ripping off folks life-savings. Their first assignment is Derek Griffin, an investment banker that ripped off five hundred million, then disappeared as the Federal government was closing in.

Only one caveat. Fox is still a wanted man. If another agency picks him up, oh well…If Kate is caught helping him…As they used to say on Mission: Impossible, “the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions.” In other words, jail time.

Not a god plan…for Kate anyway. But she takes it.

Look forward to future volumes in this series. I’ve not read any of Evanovich’s work previous, but will start to work soon. I’m sure both authors will gain new fans from the other’s side as with me.

Recommended and available HERE. There’s also a short story introducing the protagonist, PROS AND CONS.
