"This, the fourth book by David Hosp, is based on a true event -- the theft of millions of dollars of art work some 20 years ago. Though still unsolved, Hosp's story gives a "what if" account of the heist. This one will keep you guessing until the end. " — Rebecca (4 out of 5 stars)
"This, the fourth book by David Hosp, is based on a true event -- the theft of millions of dollars of art work some 20 years ago. Though still unsolved, Hosp's story gives a "what if" account of the heist. This one will keep you guessing until the end. "
“A top-notch tale…fast-paced and gritty; Hosp knows his stuff, and it shows in this suspense-filled novel.”
“Sharply written, and fans of the Martin Scorsese movie The Departed will not a similar feel here: Hosp blurs the line between good and bad, right and wrong. This could be the best of the Finn novels and should draw new readers.”
“Hosp has a good eye for character…and creates some promising ones that lead to an unusual detective pairing and an unconventional love story.”
" Clever plot that blends the real-life mystery of the Gardner Museum heist with a fictional terrorist plot involving the IRA. Great characters, good sense of place, but could have been edited to remove some irrelevant details. Overall, a good read. "
" Good plot, twist at end. Good Read. "
" I enjoyed the story, but the writing wasn't anything special and I really didn't like the ending. Hosp should have left things unknown, since that better reflects the reality of this theft, instead of trying to tie everything up in a neat little package. "
" Pretty good read, though more interesting because of the local (Boston) flavor for me. I did like the main and secondary characters so I'd definitely pick up another book by this author that featured them. "
" Easy to read and fast paced. A good book to recommend to those readers who like a lot of action in their stories. But do not read this book while eating. It is rather gory! "
" It may have started a bit slow (probably because I was reading several others at the same time) but I really got into and at the end was desperate to finish and have the answer and so afraid I wouldn't get it! "
" Art theft, murder, double-crossing, IRA, love, and more. I enjoyed the book even though I didn't figure out the final twist until the very end. "
