Right here they’re up in opposition to criminals on two completely different continents, and that is the place pc professional VP comes into her personal. Telephone scammers in Kolkata are stealing cash from susceptible aged victims worldwide, together with domestically in Philadelphia, and with the assistance of an Indian contact they got down to hint the supply and shut them down – not a simple activity when they’re so far-off and might’t intervene. At residence, they arrive up in opposition to a venture known as Sweat Fairness, a form of pyramid scheme, whose predominant intention is to defraud native authorities of multi-million-dollar grants. Fuelled by sheer greed, they may cease at nothing to realize their goals. Can Kyle, Rollie, VP, Steve and Sandy cease them earlier than they get clear away? One of the best factor about this collection is how properly developed the characters are – the black humour and witty banter helps to offset the hazard they face each day. Quick Money is a gripping thriller, coping with very actual modern issues, and it saved me studying lengthy into the evening. I look ahead to catching up with Kyle and his mates within the subsequent guide.
