No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
Pulling off an impossible crime is the only way he can stay alive.
Stealing a Faberge egg. Surviving a double cross. And pulling off the most incredible robbery ever, for the worldโs most demandingโand dangerous collector.
This will be the challenge of thief extraordinaire Riley Wolfeโs life.
Fool Me Twice opens in St. Petersburg, where Riley steals the eggโno easy task. Betrayed by the pilot he hired to help him get away, he wakes chained to a rock wall on one of the Kerguelen Islandsโthe most remote spot on earthโprisoner of a top-dog international arms dealer, and a top-notch art collector. He wants Riley to steal an artwork. Small problem--itโs a fresco, โThe Liberation of St. Peter.โ Slightly larger problem--itโs in the Vatican.
And, it's a literal wall.
Riley has no choice: agree or die. But when his captor turns him loose, he's grabbed by another arms dealer looking to do a double cross. Worse, he gives Riley a special incentive: a surveillance photograph of Monique, the love of his life, and more important, the art forger he can't pull off any heist without. The threat is clear. Riley knows they both have only one way out.
With wicked dialogue, tons of explosive twists, and cinema-worthy scenes, Jeff Lindsayโs Fool Me Twice is another wildly entertaining caper starring the anti-hero youโll root for, Riley Wolfe.
