Another disappointment. There's a new narrator who does an excellent job & an interesting plot, but it's just ridiculous. Lettie, the youngest & least experienced agent is given control of an operation & far more experienced agents in a ridiculous series of gun fights & detective work that would make even a Hollywood thriller writer groan.
Sandford has had a great run. Over 30 novels in a series that regularly got 3 & 4 stars from me, but he's apparently run the series out & hasn't quit while ahead. That's a shame. I see he has another book in the Prey series out with another planned after that. I'm not sure if I'll bother to read them.

It's so weird how he went from good, logical plots to ridiculous ones so quickly. The one before this, Righteous Prey, was even more hopeless than this one. I can't see how anyone could give it high marks given the outright stupidity of running around after cash when the whole thing was about dealing with bit coin. Or someone with no money dealing with bit coin billionaires in that way without getting some compensation up front or making bug-out plans. It was just one gaping plot pit after another, even worse than the Jack Reacher books. Well, maybe not worse, but just as bad. At least Sandford still gets most of the finer details right.
