Another decent tale featuring Jack Burdette, master jewel thief. Having read the first of the Burdette tales made this one pretty predictable.
The deal killer was the ending. I really hate authors that resort to cliff hanger endings to entice the reader into the next novel. Should be able to do that with a great character and great telling of the tale.

Great book
Great story and follow-up to first book, hard to put down. I can’t wait for the next book in this series to be released.

Great plot but a little too much fluff with side items. The story was great and held your interest between long sodestories

Great sequel
Same multi -twist plot and high speed pace, same strong, singularly purposed characters and plenty of gray. Every page is entertainment.
