Publisher's summary

She fought for her country. Now she’s fighting for her family.

When Sergeant Charlie McCabe returns from fighting in Afghanistan, she hopes to leave the war behind. Instead, she comes home to a father whose gambling has put him in deep trouble with a violent loan shark. She finds work as a professional bodyguard, but to save her father, she needs to get serious cash together fast.

However, her father isn’t the only one who needs saving. When Charlie’s first client - a wealthy executive with a shady past - narrowly escapes a bomb plot, Charlie’s investigation leads her into the heart of Boston’s criminal underworld. Along the way, she stumbles upon clues about a diamond heist gone wrong that’s been unsolved for decades.

With the clock ticking and chaos descending, Charlie sees a solution to both problems, but it won’t be easy, and it won’t be pretty. A “normal” life may await Charlie on the other side of this mess, but part of her knows that the battle has just begun.

What a nail biter!

This was the second Craig Schaefer book I’ve read and I’m definitely hooked. The Loot has a great story-line, believable characters, and had me constantly guessing what would happen next. I especially loved the imagery- spanking a ketchup bottle! I never would’ve thought to use those words but I absolutely loved it! Susannah Jones does a fabulous job narrating. She really makes the story come alive and draws you in, especially those last few chapters. Her narration really notches up the intensity level. I will definitely be reading this book at least a few more times.

Little to no foul language.

This writer did not feel the need to use a bunch of foul language to make his story work. I really enjoyed being able to immerse myself in the story without feeling like I was going to step on an F-bomb every couple of words. I will definitely be enjoying more books by this author if this proves to be his normal writing style!

Excellent first in a series... GREAT FIND!

I really enjoyed THE LOOT by Craig Schaefer. I've never listened to anything by this author before but will be looking at his previous books now.
The publisher gives a pretty comprehensive summary and to add to it would only provide spoilers.
The book is fast paced. Plenty of action, ammunition, hand to hand and strategizing.
Susannah Jones does an excellent job narrating.
If you have kindle unlimited this book is FREE to borrow with the kindle edition.

Really good Kindle Unlimited book

Lately it's been a struggle to find any thing worth using my audible credits on. This mystery had a good story, good narration and an interesting female heroine. Plus it's free with Kindle Unlimited.
