Jamie Porter is an archaeologist excavating in Central America. Twenty years ago, her father hijacked a plane and is now a federal prisoner serving his time but will soon be released. Now all she wants is her father to live with her once he is out of prison.

Alexander Beck is an entrepreneur known as The Falcon; he is also an international thief. Choosing only jobs that interest him, he is well known for his success rate and job satisfaction among his clientele. He is the man you hire if you want something retrieved.

Twenty years ago, Bill Porter was a man on the edge; his had just lost his job as a pilot and his wife to cancer. Needing to make ends meet and raise his daughter Jamie, he concocted a scheme that seemed foolproof; successfully hijacking a plane and holding it for ransom. He got away with over $8,000,000 but ended up turning himself in when he was betrayed. To this day, the stolen money has never been recovered. He is now relying on The Falcon to retrieve and bring him back the hidden ransom money.

I just love to picture a hijacker in prison hiring another thief via the internet to recover his hidden money. Add in an intrigued Alex and mix it up with a decades old unsolved FBI mystery. This international caper comes complete with saving the life of Jamie and adds kidnapping, murder and revenge. I enjoyed how the author tells us about a man who dares to let down his guard and accept someone as a partner and into his heart and his life. This riveting tale keeps you guessing from the very beginning on how it all might end.
