Jack attracts trouble without trying

This clever series is set at a bar named Cap's Place in Hollywood, Florida. 40 year old Jack Nolan, a former prosecutor in Detroit, inherited Cap's Place. In this novel Jack attracts unwanted attention from a New Jersey organized crime boss who wants to use Cap's Place to launder money. That trouble is offset by help from a Florida organized crime boss. Jack is also on the hit list of a CIA executive whose surname is Potus. Other than that the novel is light and fun fare with moderate suspense. My 4 star rating may be a bit generous, but it is clever enough for the higher rating.

As expected... Better than the last one

Better plot. I'll try #3., still too much self absorbed behavior and if I hear Landshark one more time...
