Reluctant Smuggler (To Catch a Thief) Book Three – Virtual Book Tour
January 30, 2008
It’s been a long time since I’ve read a fiction book. I read one by Ted Dekker a few years ago and even a few years before that, I read one by Frank Perretti. It’s not often that I have the leisure time of reading something simply for fun.
This particular paperback, the Reluctant Smuggler caught my attention with the cover art picture showing bright beams of light on two dark figures. I expected it to be scary and it had its moments where I was on edge hoping Desi and Tony would be okay!
The author depicts each and every scene with great detail painting vivid pictures in the readers mind.
This book is captivating and full of suspense, love, mystery and faith. It is obvious the author loves and understands a lot about art.
The story is interesting and the characters are believable. I’m glad I had the opportunity to read Reluctant Smuggler by Jill Elizabeth Nelson. In this world of dealing with light and darkness everyday, I found it to be encouraging.

Summary:
Looting of archaeological sites is big business in a thriving art and antiquities black market. When a desperate foreign government hires Desiree Jacobs’s security company to stop the hemorrhage, she runs afoul of a deadly art-for-drugs operation. Tony Lucano risks his rising career in the FBI to dive into the international underworld after her. Before either of them can come up for air, they must navigate through a deepening murk of ruthless looters, hair-trigger DEA agents, crooked government agents, and innocent bystanders caught up in an illegal trade beyond their understanding. Even if a miracle delivers Desi and Tony from evil, will their love survive the test?
