Publisher Description

A masterful thief plots an impossible crime—stealing the Iranian Crown Jewels.
 
From the author of the wildly successful Dexter series comes a new, mesmerizing bad guy we can root for: Riley Wolfe. He’s a master thief, expert at disguise, and not averse to violence when it’s needed. It’s no accident, though, that Riley targets the wealthiest 0.1 percent and is willing to kill them when they’re in his way: he despises the degenerate and immoral rich and loves stealing their undeserved and unearned valuables.
 
In this series launch, Riley aims for an extraordinary target in a heist that will make history. Riley will try to steal the Crown Jewels of Iran. Yes, these jewels are worth billions, but the true attraction for grabbing them comes down to one simple fact: it can’t be done. Stealing these jewels is absolutely impossible. The collection is guarded by space-age electronics and two teams of heavily armed mercenaries. No one could even think of getting past the airtight security and hope to get away alive, let alone with even a single diamond from the Imperial Collection.
 
No one but Riley Wolfe. He’s always liked a challenge.
 
But this challenge may be more than even he can handle. Aside from the impenetrable security, Riley is also pursued by a brilliant and relentless cop who is barely a step behind him.
 
With the aid of his sometime ally, a beautiful woman who is a master art forger, Riley Wolfe goes for the prize that will either make him a legend—or, more likely, leave him dead.

Handsome Paladin ,

Great Book. Wrong Narrator

For an author, Lindsay is a serviceable narrator, but his voice sounds a couple decades too old and possesses a bit of a Homer Simpson intonation. The result is kind of unsettling. The book is fast-paced and lots of fun, but there are so many exceptional professional narrators out there, why not use one?

Ok, but disappointing

I’ve read all of Lindsay’s “Dexter” books and I loved them. So I was excited to see a new title and a new character from this outstanding author. But I was disappointed right away. I think maybe Lindsay is too used to us all loving Dexter. Dexter earned it. But Lindsay comes out of the chute with Riley Wolf being an arrogant thief/murderer and we’re supposed to agree that anyone with money is a ”scum sucker” who deserves to be robbed. And murdered if it’s convenient. I could have lived with this if it hadn’t been for his horrible treatment of a kind, intelligent, sympathetic heiress and a straight-shooting law enforcer. His friend even calls him out on the former, but it doesn’t phase him.

I finished this book only because other interesting characters were finally introduced. I think Lindsay has made a serious error in expecting us to get behind a sociopath with no redeeming quirks or empathy.

Riley Wolf needs to earn our love, or at least our concurrence. I’ll read the next Riley Wolf book. But Lindsay has some repair work to do.
