Fantastic follow-up to the somewhat lesser Rum Runner, this tenth installment of the Jack Daniels series is a winner from the first page. A plethora of our favorite characters in this series all co-star as Jack must find Phin, who has gone off on his own to bring down the notorious and dangerous Luther Kite. Plenty of peril and intrigue and suspense but with the usual degree of dark comedy thrown in for good measure. Donaldson’s part in this book is total comic relief, and the always-running-at-the-mouth Harry McGlade made me laugh out loud at times. On the flip side, the dark and demented characters of Luther, Lucy, and their allies sober up the reader with their macabre and gut-wrenching tortures they perform on their captives. Numerous twists to the plot and unexpected situations combine for one heck of a great book. I especially liked the way the climax was written, as the perspectives from all the major players rapidly alternate as events unfold. I was completely taken by surprise by some of the things that happened toward the ending. I also admit I’m liking Jack’s character less and less over the past couple of books, and IMHO Katie nails it with her assessment of Jack near the climax. But that doesn’t take away from this tremendously good story...it’s gotta be at or near the top of the series. Loved it.
