About this book

The Tinman Series: Bringing a little comedy to crime, one caper at a time. So what's the best thing to steal these days? Gems, electronics, luxury goods? Nah. Smart thieves know the hottest, most untraceable commodity on the market is nuts? specifically pistachios-but almonds run a close second.Surprised? Tinman sure is. But not enough to stop him from trying to heist a cool forty thousand pounds' worth (shells included). His twin brother, Peach, and the rest of the Posse think his latest scheme is ridiculous-which makes it perfect for our purposes!Separated from his family of fellow crooks and alone in a strange forbidding land (California), can Tinman make off with a mountain of crunchy loot and fulfill his childhood dream of owning a pool hall? Chances = slim to nil. Not trying to pooh-pooh the idea, but, face it, he's unwittingly pitted himself against a ruthless Armenian crime syndicate that claims all the country's nuts as their own. He's also squarely in the sights of the Nut Theft Task Force, an elite squad of law enforcers assigned to end the wholesale pillaging of America's precious kernels. And let's see-oh yeah, just for kicks, the Mexican Mafia gets into the mix. But, hey, nobody said chasing a dream was easy-or safe.To find out just how wickedly entertaining it gets, tune into Tinman and his lovable gang as they tackle a heist of nutty proportions, with rib-tickling results.Nut Job is the fourth book in the comedy/caper Tinman Series. If you crave edge-of-your-seat action, madcap adventure, and daring heists, don't pass up this comedic gem by Marc J. Reilly.
