Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 05 3, 2014
Grant Fieldgrove's book might have been subtitled  " a con man's primer "  .The story opens with our young hero (or crook if you wish )  standing in the middle of a room with a gun placed to his forehead .  Through a series of flashbacks we see how  a young man learns the tricks of his trade at his father's knee , the art of the con . We follow Finnick Hollin's career  as he develops his skills as a conman  and find out how and why he ends up in  with a gun against his skull  Intermixed in the narration ,  the readers is given  a  firsthand explanation how many cons are pulled off .Add a serious love interest for our hero , a dramatic showdown  that involves more then one twist and turn and an unexpected ending  and you have an excellent story . Hopefully the trio will strike again in a future work  ( the author leaves this possibility open  I will keep my fingers crossed ) . I highly recommend this book to all mystery fans .
