Everything was going smoothly until my past caught up with me.

Now I'm being taunted by a madman who knows more about me than I do.

He's kidnapped the closest person in my life, and he is using it to get my attention.

Trust me... he has it. Now I just need to figure out where he is and when he'll strike again.

Things were easier when I was only kidnapping children.

Dirty Deeds 2 by Armand Rosamilia.

Oh what a tangled web we weave, when we practice to deceive.

We see James Gaffney searching for his kidnapped assistant Marisa, his right-hand gal ,computer hacker extraordinaire, his friend and apprentice.
She was taken by one of the kids that he saved in the past, but which one? The kidnapper goes by the name Harry, but James knew that is not his real name. Nor can he understand why Harry would do this sort of thing to punish James after he gave him the life he deserved and got him out of a bad situation. He should be thanking James.
Time is running out and James has to figure out where Harry has taken Marisa. but without her hacking skills he is at a lost.
He turns to Marco a mob hacker he had worked with in the past … just one problem, Marco is on the run from “The family”, and no one knows where he is. The clock is ticking on Marisa’s life so James turns to the last person he cares to ask about Marcos whereabouts, that would be the head of “The Family” Chinso. Chinso send Chazz to help James look for Marco, Chazz & Marco had been close childhood friends, if anyone had a clue where Marco may be held up, it would be the Chazz.
Neither James nor Chazz is thrilled with this team up, James views Chazz as a typical ‘meathead” not very bright and who seems to be trying to eat his way across the country. James is unaware at the time Chinso had a hidden agenda for why he wanted Chazz to help him find Marco. That reason would become apparent soon enough.
James tried to not let the cracks in his armor show, he matched the big man’s intimidation with his own.
He couldn’t allow Chazz to see any weakness or the shark would take advantage of it. Truth be told Harry had done more than just take Marisa, he had taken everything James had worked for his entire life, including his identity while selling off all James assets for pennies on the dollar. All that was left of James money was what he had in his pocket.
While in Florida, James stumbles across the FBI agent Reggie Keane, the man that has tried so many times to put James behind bars for what he thinks James has done. So that was another wrinkle in James plan to get Marisa back. You see Keane was working outside of his official capacity and therefore was a free agent with no backup or assistance in any way from his co-workers at the FBI.
This team of misfit toys, were a better match than any of them wanted to admit, and quite comical at times. Will they find Marisa in time? Would James be able to start over from scratch at this point in his life?
The Multi-talented Armand Rosimila did it again! I was first introduced to his work through his zombie series Dying Days, then he started writing crime novels and who doesn’t love a well thought out crime novel?I love his charters in this series and how things are not what they seem. The invention of James Gaffney was brilliant. He is an interesting character with the "most unique" job. Where appearing to be a killer and thug helps to further his career and being on the wrong side of the law is a definite perk.

This wasn't quite as good as the first book but it was still a good read. This is a fun series that I will continue. This also ends with a cliffhanger. It's fine since I happen to be a series reader and I don't have to wait for book 3 to come out.
Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2017
I was wondering if the author could match the magic in the first book in his series, and he did, keeping vital elements while adding a lot of character depth.

Part 2 began appropriately with the main character in a confused funk he forces himself through. From there the story regains the first book's drive and wry wit. Steadily, former first book characters are reintroduced. Equally satisfying, new characters join in.

I particularly liked how each character is given verbal nuances that instantly characterizes and identifies them in future exchanges.

I'm not a huge fan of cliffhanger endings in books (vs action thrillers on TV) but was ready for it this time, even if I guessed wrong what it would be (smiles). There was also a fuller sense, this not being the first book, of an "episode" that finished - thus producing a satsfying ending within a larger continuing arc.

I'm definitely looking forward to #3!!!

The second Dirty Deeds book, I think there are nine in all and I'm a bit meh.... about it.

I've really enjoyed some of this author's work in the past - Belford Stories and one of his Flagler Beach collections which mainly concern.... people, relationships, everyday life, hopes, disappointments and dreams. The Dirty Deeds books are more crime oriented and feature James Gaffney posing as a child kidnapper, but actual saviour, crossing paths with the FBI, the mob and various other deviants who want their children gone and the opportunity for a different life unencumbered by responsibility.

I quite like James as a character. I enjoy his interactions with Reggie Keene (possible mispelling, because I've only enjoyed these as Audible books), the FBI agent trying to nail him. I like his banter with assistant, Marissa (?), the woman who sets up his jobs and organises his life for him. There's humor in their dialogue, sometimes funny, sometimes causing my eyeballs to roll into the back of my head. Overall a plus in the books.

There's a couple of things that are less enjoyable really. Secondly, book one, kind of climaxed at last chapter minus one. The last chapter set up Marissa's kidnapping as the hook for Dirty Deeds 2. The end of this one has a similar set-up. Actual story ends again at last chapter less one and the hook for #3 in the series (one I'm listening to now) is the final chapter. I think this is one of my pet hates as a reader. Rosamilia is not alone in doing this, but it does irritate me.

Biggest bugbear is probably a weak plot. There's a fair bit of fannying around where the villain, the kidnapper plays games with James. He has an issue with him, just cut to the chase confront him - kill or be killed and save me the mindless guff in between. With the support cast of a couple of mob cronies - one a hacker, one a mob enforcer and with instructions to also do away with James and his hacker best friend we have a goose chase around Florida before a return to Atlanta for a climax. The Florida scenes which form a lot of the book, mainly involve Chaz the enforcer eating, wanting to eat, ruminating about his next meal or talking about meals he has enjoyed in the past. I think I must have put on a couple of pounds every time Chaz featured in a scene. It kind of got old very quickly.

Narration was good. Settings - Florida and Atlanta were enjoyed. Characters were more hits than misses. Story/plot/set-up - not great. Pace was ok. A lot of padding maybe to support a story which in my opinion was a bit too much of a stretch. Execution - a bit disappointing.

Overall - probably just a 3. I didn't actually hate it despite my reservations, but it didn't blow my socks off either. I'm obviously in a minority - 19 reviews showing on Amazon UK - 18 x 5 stars, 1 x 4 star.

Belford Stories and JandJ Fitness, as well as Dirty Deeds have been enjoyed before.

Once again, Armand Rosamilia has crafted a great crime thriller. I love his use of humor as the characters interact, making the story more believable and less fictional. Great characters and a story that blazes through from beginning to end in a few sittings. I need more, so on to book 3!

Have enjoyed these books, although the author to keep you buying always ends a book with a follow on that you need to purchase to finish the story, I've bought other stories by him and I'm expecting the same!
But they are a good read and so I will more than likely buy more by him, with this title I'm having to wait now for Dirty Deeds 4 to hopefully complete the story.
