Nothing is impossible and nothing can stop him


Just Watch Me by Jeff Lindsay; 2019; $26.00; 358 pages; Dutton, New York, NY; 978-1-5247-4394-9; checked out from Multnomah County Library, Hillsdale; 12/31/2019-1/1/2020

Don't tell Riley Wolfe that something is impossible to steal because he will figure out a way to steal and perhaps deal out some of his own brand of justice.  
Iran and the United States are collaborating to bring the Crown Jewels of Iran to a small private museum in New York City.  A 182 carat diamond, the Sea of Light is a part of the collection, which is to be guarded by a beyond state of the art security system, a security team made of former Seals and Delta guys, and a platoon of Iranian Revolutionary guards.  Riley is told it will be impossible so he figures out how to do it.  Lives and hearts will be sacrificed and broken so that Riley can pull off the job. 
Riley's backstory is told as an FBI agent is trying to figure out what motivates Riley.  Riley manages to sabotage his own love life by not caring whose heart he breaks.  
I am looking forward to reading more adventures of Riley Wolfe.
