Are you looking for a book that's all action, all the time? This is that book. Are you looking for a book that has a laugh on every page? This is that book, too. Not to mention explosions, car chases, and six or seven capers, cons, and heists, large and small. Plus romance, twists, and fights to the death. This book has it all. If some studio's not working on the movie version right now instead of the 19th remake of Beau Geste, Hollywood really is hopeless.Kate O'Hare and Nick Fox go all out in another globe-spanning thriller that this time involves art thefts. Several of them. Carter Grove, former White House chief of staff, has one the greatest collections of stolen art in the world. He's now the head of Black Rhino and its mercenary army. Want to take over a country? Grove is the man to see. He's also the man O'Hare and Fox have to steal from, and he's an implacable enemy. Can O'Hare and Fox survive? Sure, but how they do it and what happens afterward is where all the fun is.
Well, not all the fun. Even the character names are fun. Fox prefers to use the names of TV characters for his many aliases, but you might see some others you recognize if you watch for them.
If the long, gloomy winter has you down, read The Chase. It's all sunshine, and it'll chase those winter blues away.
