The fourth Finlay Donovan book was pretty good. Vero's "friend" (a.k.a. love interest, even if she won't admit it) Javi has been kidnapped by some of Feliks' goons and taken to Atlantic City, so off they go to rescue him. Steven, Finlay's ex-husband, insists on going (actually, it worked out--he got stuck watching the kids the whole time so Vero and Finlay could look for Javi). Finlay's mom rounds out the group, and her sister and her sister's love interest end up joining them, as well as hot cop Nick and crooked cop Charlie.
Dead bodies in bath tubs, an overweight dachshund named Kevin Bacon, a missing Aston Martin with a flash drive worth $14 million, and a persistent book agent round out the action. Finlay and Nick do get to spend some quality time together, as do Vero and Javi (once they rescue him). Most of the bad guys ended up dead and order was restored to the universe. "No more dead bodies!" Vero and Finlay vow once they get home. So naturally the police find a dead body in her neighbor's back yard.
