Thirty Four old librarian [and a virgin]Maddy Lawrence was given and adventure of a lifetime with a real-life hero who could have been her book hero "Ace" MacKenzie.
"Ace" was hard-nosed enough to believe Maddy was involved with the sleazeball, Tommy "Sneakers" Lazear, her boss by the way.
But when Cement Johnny Dempsey, arch enemy and rival of Sneakers, decided to kidnap Maddy, Ace knew he didn't have much time in which to save her.
Maddy, he was sure, knew of Sneakers hidden warehouse and that Cement Johnny was torture her if necessary to find it.
Therein began the greatest adventure of Maddy's uneventful life, as Ace forced her to fly with him the Caracus, Venezuela via Mexico City.
Ah, but the attractions started and added small complications all along the trip. Dominic didn't help either. But he did help them find Barrera in the remote jungle [grin - and left them].
What an escape! Great reading!
Highly Recommended - great ending! may want to read it again.
