Guy Caple grew up in Montreal amongst a family known for typically being on the wrong side of the law: When he was sixteen, Guy panicked over the pregnancy of his older girlfriend Martine and fled to Boston when Isabelle was born. Two decades later, Guy returns to his hometown to meet the daughter he abandoned at birth and never met. He is a bit shocked to find Martine living with twenty-two years old Harry as she has for the past five years. He soon learns that his former girlfriend, her lover, and his daughter are running a counterfeiting ring. Fearing for Isabel's safety he plans to persuade the two females to stop before they get caught, but instead joins their plans that fall apart as underground thugs want the quartet dead. This is an amusing crime romp that will keep readers laughing and riveted as Guy and company go from one catastrophe to another. The fab four are delightful characters with each containing unique personalities that together make them inefficient and ineffective. The sexual encounters add to the sublime fast-paced Canadian counterfeit caper that never slows down until the final stunner. Fans will take immense pleasure with this fine novel and expect more wild rides from Natalee Caple. Harriet Klausner

Caple has written a strong, fun, sexy and beautiful story with well written characters. They are probably not the type of people you have ever actually met but I'm sure you will feel like you completely understand and know each.Imagine a mother and daughter counterfeiting team, Martine and Isabelle, that include a young man, the age of Isabelle but the lover of Martine, in their scheme. Enter Guy, Isabelle's father, a man she has not met before and Martine's young lover year's before. All set in beautiful locations in Quebec, this novel was a pleasure to read.Caple is a Canadian writer we should be proud of. I hope we see much more from her pen.
