Thank you to Atria Books for gifting me a review copy of The Bounty by Janet Evanovich and Steve Hamilton. This is number seven in the Fox and O’Hare series and what a wild ride it is!

The best way I can think to describe this book is Indiana Jones, meets National Treasure and White Collar—and actually, I think it would make a pretty great movie too.

FBI agent Kate O’Hare and charming ex-con man Nick Fox race against time (and all the people trying to kill them) to uncover a buried train filled with Nazi gold. They travel all over the world to find pieces of the map that will lead them to the final location. Every situation they find themselves in is more hair-rasing than the last!

Kate and Nick have a bit of an on-again, off-again romance too so there are a few sparks flying and some flirty moments between them to keep things spicy.

Yes, this book is wildly inaccurate and implausible at times, but don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story and just enjoy the ride, because once you start you won’t be able to put this one down. Grab yourself a copy via the button below.

Synopsis:

FBI agent Kate O’Hare and charming con man Nick Fox race against time to uncover a buried train filled with Nazi gold.

Straight as an arrow special agent Kate O’Hare and international con man Nick Fox have brought down some of the biggest criminals out there. But now they face their most dangerous foe yet—a vast, shadowy international organization known only as the Brotherhood.

Directly descended from the Vatican Bank priests who served Hitler during World War II, the Brotherhood is on a frantic search for a lost train loaded with $30 billion in Nazi gold, untouched for over seventy-five years somewhere in the mountains of Eastern Europe.

Kate and Nick know that there is only one man who can find the fortune and bring down the Brotherhood—the same man who taught Nick everything he knows—his father, Quentin. As the stakes get higher, they must also rely on Kate’s own father, Jake, who shares his daughter’s grit and stubbornness. Too bad they can never agree on anything.

From a remote monastery in the Swiss Alps to the lawless desert of the Western Sahara, Kate, Nick, and the two men who made them who they are today must crisscross the world in a desperate scramble to stop their deadliest foe in the biggest adventure of their lives.
