I stopped reading Patterson after a very gory serial killer novel a few years ago. I decided to try him again when I saw this one. Working as a lifeguard, Ned meets the woman of his dreams – who may not be who she seems. Ned has one job to do before he is home free – a quick break-and-enter set up by his cousin, worth enough to set him up for life. The heist goes bad and Ned is on the run from the FBI and whoever sabotaged the heist. Ned runs and begins to piece it together on his own.
