- Synopsis
- Adrift in a sleepy coastal Massachusetts town, a man who ferries fugitives by day gets twisted up in a plot to pilfer diamonds in this Casablanca-infused heist novel.Jack might be a polished, Harvard-educated lawyer on paper, but everyone in the down-at-the-heels, if picturesque, village of Onset, Massachusetts, knows his real job: moving people on the run from powerful enemies. The family business—co-managed with his father, a retired spy—is smooth sailing, as they fill up Onset&’s holiday homes during the town&’s long, drowsy off-season and help clients shed their identities in preparation for fresh starts.But when Elena, Jack&’s former flame—a dedicated hustler who's no stranger to the fugitive life—makes an unexpected return to town, her arrival upends Jack&’s routine existence. Elena, after all, doesn&’t go anywhere without a scheme in mind, and it isn&’t long before Jack finds himself enmeshed in her latest project: intercepting millions of dollars&’ worth of raw diamonds before they&’re shipped overseas.Infusing a fast-paced plot with sharp wit and stylish prose, CrimeReads editor-in-chief Dwyer Murphy serves up an irresistible page-turner as full of heart as it is of drama.
