Fabulous!! This was a great story which I could not put down. Would recommend this to everyone who loves this genre.
The Saint of Thieves
I’ve never heard of author Dana Haynes before, but the synopsis of the book sounded fun.
A pair of bounty hunters, an ex-New York cop and an ex-intelligence agent, go after some of the worst criminals for international courts. This time the case turns out to be a little more personal.
The book moved well and had some great character beats. The description of the setting almost made you feel like you were there.
My only real downside to the book was the action.
Based on the plot of the book, I was expecting more. More gunplay. More fights.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying there wasn’t any, I just felt it needed… more.
After getting through some of my current reading, I’ll probably go back and read the first two books in the series.
This is one of the best international thriller series out there, and the third one is as good as the first two.
There's lots of action, an engaging cast of colorful characters, snappy dialogue, jet-set exotic locales, and enough suspense and plot twists to keep the pages turning. Our hero can drink half a bottle of vodka, seduce the nerdy professor, and still take down a couple of mob hitmen without breaking a sweat.
The overall vibe, from the two main characters to the international glamor to the over-the-top villains, is very much Modesty Blaise/Willie Garvin, and the author even tips his hat to the resemblance at the end.
I loved The Saint of Thieves by Dana Haynes!
Loved the characters. Loved the settings. Loved the action. Loved the suspense.
It's a well-crafted and compelling story.
This is the 3rd book in the St. Nicholas Salvage & Wrecking series. It's the first I have read and now I will be working backward to read the other two. The two main characters, ex-cop Michael Finnigan and ex-spy Katalin Fiero Dahar generally bring the worst of the world's worst to the International Criminal Court and often rely on what many might consider shadowy friends to get the job done. The duo finds themselves now being called to rescue one of these friends--and the task isn't as simple as it may seem.
Highly recommended. It's due to be published in January. Get it as soon as you can.
Normally, Sci Fi is not my thing but this one intrigued my interest. Wow! What a fabulous read. I will be going back to read the first two books in this series. Looking forward to more from this author and hopefully this series
Some garbage requires special handling. That’s when the St. Nicholas & Wrecking crew is called in. In this, the third book of the series, the crew has to operate outside the law once again. The past meets the present as some exceptionally bad guys need to be elite.
