First sentence…
It was the worst possible timing – or maybe the best.
The Overview: Beware of Spoilers…
Fiona and Bill are back.
As a major hurricane bears down on New York, Fiona is on a mission to pull off a heist from a bad guy’s luxury penthouse. She has a plan to get past the security team, grab the item and be gone before they know it’s missing. What Fiona didn’t count on was what she found in the master bedroom. Now she’s on the run with redacted due to spoiler.
Bill is riding out the storm in a “borrowed” penthouse. The place is well-stocked and the owner left for safer regions well before the hurricane was scheduled to hit. Bill plans to eat and drink, as he waits for Fiona to return. Suddenly a group of dirty cops bust into the penthouse. They’re looking for redacted due to spoiler but find Bill instead! The cops are desperate. Bill realizes they’ll kill him unless he can convince them he knows of money ripe for the taking. Bill’s a good con man, but how long can he con these hardcore cops?
Fiona is on the run, slowed down by redacted due to spoiler. Bill’s a prisoner of rouge cops driving to the promised “treasure”. The weather’s getting worse. What else could go wrong? How about a hitman that Bill and Fiona had left for dead, ain’t. And he’s back. Yeah, it’s a hell of a mess and things are about to get worse.
Hell of a Mess rates 4 of 5 stars. It’s a rollercoaster ride from start to finish. I hope we’ll see a Love & Bullets Hookup Book 5.
