L. A. Outlaws (Charlie Hood, Bk 1)
reviewed on + 8 more book reviews


Parker's main character, Allison, is a thief who rationalizes the way she gets her thrill is that she donates the winnings to charity. You find you admire a little of her bravado and yet know she's going to step too far and when her "catch" is a fortune in diamonds, you know she's finally in over her head.

It's a fast paced book and written in Parker's style of unusual characters where the good guy "line" is finely drawn and still you cheer just a little for the outlaw.

Even if you know the conclusion 3/4 of the way through, you keep hoping you're wrong.
