review Fall Rotten Ô eBook or Kindle ePUB Think Fast Talk Faster A vault full of French fascist gold just waits to be taken It’s the early days of 1940 and Paris has settled into the new normal a war where no one’s bothered to show up As uncertainty permeates the darkened City of Light a secretive organization works to concentrate the wealth and power of France with a select few For them Hitler is an allyFor Les Boots things. Fall Rotten is a little bit The Italian Job a little bit Inglorious Basterds and an awful lot of fun In 1940 France everyone is waiting for the Germans to start invading in earnest This includes a small multi national group of attractive eccentric con artists known as le Boot Hill Gang or les Boots Les Boots have heard about a French fascist with a large vault full of gold and they d like to get into it while everyone is distracted and unsettled The shares of the vault start getting smaller and les Boots apartment starts getting crowded as they recruit helpThe first uarter of the novel drags a little bit with exposition and introduction However this is necessary Once the action starts it really starts The stakes are high in Fall Rotten as the threat posed by the Germans and French fascist sympathizers becomes serious However Serrell laces it heavily with sex wit and black humorEric Serrell makes it easy to root for les Boots They seem to be having fun than anyone else at this difficult time they genuinely love each other and at least they aren t fascists Irish Maggie French Irish Luc and American cowboy Expat have survived many a scrape together preferring to use their looks courage and intelligence on schemes than legitimate work Each member of their ragtag band of recruits has a talent and a reason to join in on the fun Serrell does a fantastic job of sketching other characters and describing the world they live and work in I can easily envision Fall Rotten as a movie In fact I began to cast it in my head Read it and feel a little smug when the trailer comes out Hmmm can Christina Hendricks do an Irish accentThanks to NetGalley for providing a preview copy in exchange for a fair and honest review

review Fall Rotten Ô eBook or Kindle ePUB G strongboxes Le Boot Hill Gang mount up and take on le beau monde of ParisThey’re sure they can deal with the dogged investigator the murderous terrorist and the nasty rival gang They think they can even manage when the neighbors to the east finally get around to invadingBut none of them counted on the relentless pursuit of a spoiled society girl out to get whatever or whomever she want. I m torn over how many stars to rate this book It s better than 4 but it s not really a 5 But being the first to review I m giving it a 5 for now as a recommendation to others to read this book It s not life altering literature but it is purely entertaining A fun lighthearted airport read that was well worth my timeRead faster than I expected and caused me to laugh out loud on a number of occasions Sorry guy in sweater with the beard sitting next to me on that one flight This was a pre release paperback given to me by a friend who somehow manages to get all of these advance copies She suggested I read it and I m glad I didThe dialogue is fast furious funny and the ending makes me hopeful that the author may continue with these characters because I loved them allOne of the best books I ve read in a long time It made me smile which is all I really want from just about any novel I read
