Billionaire Nelson Scott believes the handsome Wolfgang is perfect to perform a simple job. He flies Wolf from Oregon on an exclusive jet that makes Air Force 1 look like a Smithsonian historical exhibit. He wants Wolf to seduce his wife Kelly. For trying, Wolf will receive one million dollars, for succeeding four million. Wolf wants to catch his spouse in the act so that their prenuptial clause will leave her with nothing when he divorces her. When Wolf agrees, he was unaware that he will need luck to survive as double crosses, murder and money make fine bedfellows.
BAIT AND SWITCH is a wild suspense thriller that one moment keeps readers on the edge of their seats with tension and the next scene leads to uproarious laughter. The musings on the world that starts almost every chapter are amusing, fun and insightful in a quick fortune cookie style, which in many ways sums up Wolf. Fans will adore him, as he is a true wise guy, more tongue than gun. Larry Brooks provides a terrific tale filled with philandering spouses, cheating louses, and centered by a superb mouse.
