The Job by Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg

That's some good junk food reading! I'm finding that I really love the Fox and O'Hare series. The Job is book #3 in the series (look ma, I'm finally reading a series in order!) and pretty damn entertaining.

Nicolas Fox is on the FBI's most wanted list at #7 but he's teamed up with FBI Special Agent Kate O'Hare to work undercover to bring down some of the nastiest of nasty criminals, perhaps in a way that the FBI cannot do legally *ahem*.

In The Job, they go after Lester Menendez, a very scary and horrific dude who had his body and face all plastic surgeried in order to escape capture. One of the biggest warlords around, he killed his plastic surgeon and the staff. It turns out that the plastic surgeon was the brother of Serena Blake, former co-worker of Fox's. She wants him to find and destroy Menendez.

Fox and O'Hare pull in our favorites: Willie, Boyd, Tom and Jake (Kate's dad). They also hire Rodney Smoot, a CGI expert. All of this to pull of a ploy of sunken treasure designed to pull the warlord from hiding.

Surprisingly, it works!

This was a very fast and fun read. There are six books so far in the series so I need to get crackin'.
