PROS AND CONS by bestselling authors Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg - an engaging and tantalising short story introducing an FBI agent whos on the hunt, and a master con artist whos enjoying the chase. Not to be missed by readers of THE HEIST, THE SCAM and the Stephanie Plum mysteries. FBI special agent Kate OHare has made it her mission to nail international con artist Nicolas Fox. When she discovers his plot to plunder a venture capitalists twentieth-story Chicago penthouse of all its cash and treasures while the self-proclaimed King of Hostile Takeovers is getting married, Kate is 85 per cent - okay maybe 92 per cent - sure that shes finally going to bag Nick Fox.Problem is, first Kate has to convince her boss, building security, and maybe even herself, that wedding planner Merrill Stubing is actually Nicolas Fox. Second, she has to figure out how to corner and capture him without disrupting the event of the year. And third, whats going to happen once OHare finally gets her hands on Fox? Its going take a pro to catch a con before the fireworks over Lake Michigan go off.

The FBI had one demand when they secretly teamed up Special Agent Kate OHare with charming con man Nicolas Foxbring down the worlds most-wanted and untouchable felons. This time its the brutal leader of a global drug-smuggling empire. The FBI doesnt know what their target looks like, where he is, or how to find him, but Nick Fox has a few tricks up his sleeve to roust this particular Knipschildt chocolateloving drug lord.From the streets of Nashville to the back alleys of Lisbon, from the rooftops of Istanbul to the middle of the Thames, Nick and Kate chase their mark. When they find themselves pitted against a psychopathic bodyguard and a Portuguese enforcer who gets advice from a pickled head, they decide its time to enlist some special talenttalent like a machete-wielding Somali pirate, a self-absorbed actor, an Oscar-winning special effects artist, and Kates father Jake, a retired Special Forces operative. Together they could help make this Fox and OHares biggest win yet . . . if they survive.

Nicolas Fox is a charming con man and master thief on the run. Kate OHare is the FBI agent who is hot on his trail. At least thats what everyone thinks. In reality, Fox and OHare are secretly working together to bring down super-criminals the law cant touch. Criminals like brutal casino magnate Evan Trace.Evan Trace is running a money-laundering operation through his casino in Macau. Some of his best customers are mobsters, dictators, and global terrorists. Nick and Kate will have to go deep undercover as high-stakes gamblers, wagering millions of dollarsand their livesin an attempt to topple Traces empire.Its a scam that will take Fox and OHare from the Las Vegas strip, to the sun-soaked beaches of Oahus North Shore, and into the dark back alleys of Macau. Their only backupa self-absorbed actor, a Somali pirate, and Kates father, an ex-soldier who believes a rocket launcher is the best way to solve every problem. What could possibly go wrong?
