GOOD MORNING WELCOME TO MONDAY

   Good morning my peeps today I have for you a crime thriller, book seven in the Detective Cadillac Holland series . SHELL GAME by H Max Hiller. 

                          BOOK BLURB

 A change of venue from south of I-10 to Missouri has no effect on Detective 'Cadillac' Holland's ability to ruffle feathers, break rules, and bring a disturbing surfeit of firepower into play to right a wrong...several, in fact.

A phone call out of the blue from and old military school classmate - and a disconcerting visit from that classmate's sister - leads Detective Holland to inadvertently stumble upon yet another global antiquities theft. In his usual fashion, he manages to foist his unique approach upon every level of law enforcement from a small-town Missouri sheriff to the FBI and beyond, while skirting not only the law but the unexpected lurking danger of suffering the ultimate retribution from his Iraqi nemesis, the politically connected Habib family, while searching for an elusive shipping container of cultural artifacts stolen from the Iraqi National Museum.

Allies are hard to come by when no one is who - or where - they seem to be, and everyone is out for their personal gain at the detective's expense.

                     MY REVIEW 

  Detective Holland is back and well doing what he does best ruffling feathers and breaking rules . When artifacts go missing from the Iraqi National Museum detective Holland is thrown into the middle of mystery. Doing things his way he gets in the middle of the mystery. not knowing who he can trust and some people aren't who they say they are . Everyone is out for themselves and no one can be trusted . 

    Detective Cadillac is back and well he is busier than ever . He is still walking the fine line between keeping the rules and breaking them. He is such a likeable guy people just trust him and tell him almost anything which is good but also a curse when it comes to keeping secrets . We get to meet a lot of interesting characters in this book and honestly there are moments where you can't trust any of the characters . The author crafts such interesting complex characters that you will like and dislike at the same time. 

   This is a complex book that I read in a day. The author writes so many twists and turns through out this book that had me second guessing myself through out cause at one moment I thought I had it figured out but bang nope I was totally wrong. The author really likes to entwine the cities into his story lines. You can read this book as a stand alone because he has taken Holland out of New Orleans . So if you want a series that will make you think and solve a mystery this is the series for you add it to your fall reading list.
