He’s always been good at being bad. When he decides to match wits with the mob on their turf, will he push his luck a shade past survival?Matt Friedrich figures there’s no way out. Half a million in debt after doing time for fraud, the former art dealer would do anything to ditch his post-prison barista job for something that pays actual money. So when a shady contact from his past offers him a trial gig at her semi-legal, highly profitable agency, he can’t say no... even if it risks his parole and his life.Handcuffed to a brusque new partner who doesn’t appreciate his people skills, Matt finds himself in Milan on the trail of a man he tried to put away with his plea deal. But when the paintings they’re pursuing catch them in a crossfire with the Italian mafia, the experienced swindler may find his second chance comes at a fatal price.Will the payoff for Matt’s long con be delivered in cash or corpses?
