Many thanks to NetGalley, Crimson House Books, and Susanna Shore for providing a copy of this book for review. Definitely if this sounds up your alley, I recommend giving it a go just to see! In truth, some of this may be on me, as I'm not much of an e-reader, and struggle with that format a bit. While this book had many elements I enjoyed, including dual POVs, some romantic tension, and of course a solid whodunit, I found it more difficult to get into the voice and flow of the story than I hoped. When the owner of the safe is found dead, the two team up to investigate the murder themselves - with sparks flying between them along the way. A two-faced character herself, Ada is not just a burglar by night, she's an Interpol investigator by day. When he witnesses a crime in progress at a party, he knows walking away is his best option for staying off the radar of the crime lord that he double-crossed, but instead he goes to investigate and discovers Ada emptying a safe. Eliot is a former mobster who fakes his death and focuses on remaining a low-profile businessman in France. The Perfect Scam had an (almost) perfect plot that had so much potential but didn't quite deliver a full punch for me.
They might be out of their depth, and their lives-unless they can pull off the perfect scam. They could let the murder go unsolved-or they could investigate it themselves.įrom the Interpol Headquarters in Lyon to the jet set of Monaco, the unlikely pair track an international crime league. But they can’t exactly go to the police with the information. When the owner of the safe is found dead, only Eliot and Ada know he’s been killed because of the USB drive she stole from him. She’s never been caught-until Eliot Reed walks in on her as she’s emptying a safe.
She’s not solely the Interpol investigator everyone thinks she is. Instead, he goes to investigate.Īda Reed (no relation) has a secret too. So when he discovers a crime in progress, he should walk away. He’s a former mafia enforcer in hiding who must avoid being noticed by the law-and the crime lord he double-crossed. He’s not merely the successful businessman he appears to be. The first rule of leaving the life of crime: don’t go back.Įliot Reed has a secret.
