Lindsay's second Riley Wolfe book was really good. Riley is kidnapped after stealing a Fabergé egg from a Russian museum and taken to a remote island where he meets Patrick Boniface, the number one scary badass illegal arms dealer in the entire world. Boniface would like Riley to steal something for him: a fresco that currently lives in the Vatican. Steal an entire wall from the Vatican? Riley knows damn well it can't be done, but what choice does he have? Boniface will kill him if he doesn't, so he agrees. As he's headed to the airport to head home and try to figure out how to steal a wall from the Vatican, Riley is kidnapped again. This time it's Bailey Stone, the number *two* scary badass illegal arms dealer in the entire world. Naturally Stone would like to be number one, so he needs Riley's help to take out Boniface. Another impossible request that Riley is forced to say yes to or be killed.
I won't spoil it, but there were a lot of good twists and turns. I like Riley, like Lindsay's other dark hero, Dexter Morgan, I know he's a bad guy and I shouldn't root for him, but of course that's why Lindsay writes the way he does.
