I'm seeing mixed reviews on this one from readers, but it just didn't fire for me.

Tax advisor / financial analyst Mitch Grieff decides he's tired of living for other people and doing what's expected of him (although closer examination reveals him to be whiny, selfish, and basically lazy), and allows himself to be pulled into a scheme to make off with $103 million in client funds.

As a caper tale, it's too slow-moving to appeal, but the biggest problem for me was that there wasn't a single character in it that I cared about. If they weren't selfish and whiny, they were manipulative or larcenous, or some combination of the four.

If this hadn't been part of a book challenge, I wouldn't have finished it.
