I found this book absolutely hilarious and a suspenseful read. So here's the deal:Freddie Fraser has never in his life seen the glamour that defines the rooms inside one of the most famous and posh hotels in New York, The Plaza. To woo the girl of his dreams though, he's very much willing to let his brother, hotel clerk Alex, use the famous penthouse for one evening in order to impress the young woman. What Freddie doesn't know, however, is that a few other people are booked in there at the same time. First, there's Henry Lade who's a spy novelist that needs protection by the Secret Service because his spy novels have been ringing a bit suspicious to a few political powers. The Russians and Germans believe Lade might've discovered a major plot and now Lade's life at risk. And second, there are the Beatles who happen to stay in the penthouse suite as well. What should be a straightforward job for the spies, turns into a hilarious tale of mix-ups that will keep you on your toes.If you haven't read anything by Thomas Amo, this is one story you shouldn't miss out on. It's so funny and witty I laughed all the way through it, and would recommend it to anyone who likes tasteful humour, a well written tale and a good spy adventure.
