Partners in Crime (Partners in Crime Thrillers Book 1) Kindle Edition

A string of brutal murders. An international conspiracy that includes the highest seats of power. A ruthless, sadistic killer who’s intent on terrorizing women.

It’s tough out there for a super spy who needs to save the world on the reg.

In the first book of the Partners in Crime Thrillers, Peter Bolton is a spy, but he’s up for a career change. He makes Jack Reacher look like an amateur, and he’s saved the world more times than James Bond. But now Peter is ready to retire and live a normal life without underworld figures trying to kill him every day and without a cyanide capsule in his molar in case he gets caught.

Piper Landry walks out of the Redwood Forest of Northern California in the middle of the night with no memory and no clothes. She knows only two things. The first is that her name must be Piper Landry because that’s what’s written on a tag bolted to her ear. The other is that she’s richer than Midas.

When Peter and Piper meet, it’s fireworks. The two become instant partners, but soon Piper’s mysterious past gets in the way—not to mention the global conspiracy and the sadistic killer-- and these new partners might have to save the world one more time.

Or two more times…

Partners in Crime is a humorous action adventure romance.

4.0 out of 5 stars I've read Elise Sax's books before so I knew what to expect.

You have to be in the right frame of mind to enjoy this author's stories. Likable characters and plenty of funny comments throughout. In some places, though, a little overdone for the situation they're in. There is no rest between the 'run for your life' scenes these characters experienced. I have to say, I didn't like the ending. While not a cliffhanger, there was no closure. What happened? Why? Where did the money come from? Who is she? This one won't stop me from reading another of Elise Sax's books because she really can write fun stories with lots of laughs.

3.0 out of 5 stars When it grows up it wants to be a spy story.
Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2021
Verified Purchase
The story goes through a number of style transitions.
It starts off great, retired macho spy is minding his own business when he crosses paths with a naked woman running for her life.
They connect, and he looks for the bad guys who took her. The problem is she has amnesia and can't tell him anything.
There's the always required computer hacker, and a bunch of evil doers.
Through it all he always has a glib comeback.
Sometimes the story is just goofy. A cartoon of a spy story.
They don't ever have a problem finding people anywhere in the world.
Then, I'm sure some readers will find the sex too graphic.
It tries to be everything and misses the mark.
I wish it would have stayed a semi serious spy meets girl story.

Great work and pleased to say that towards the end, it was difficult to put my kindle down. I will definitely want to read more books by Elise sax. I am interested in finding the identity of Piper and also how her behavior will change when she recovers from her amnesia.

This is the 1st book I have read by this author so I was not sure what to expect. I discovered that the main reason I liked this book was because it was not your average murder mystery. This author chose a different approach for the storyline which made it more interesting. The characters were really well developed but a little unusual, also. I found it to be an easy & fast read that took the reader through many emotions as the plot thickened. I will say that the book is really worth reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another fun read from Elise Sax
Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2020

If you’ve read any of Elise Sax’s other series, especially the Matchmaker books, then you know what to expect. Think screwball movies of the 30s in book form. If you’re expecting a serious thriller, this is not your book. Just look at the titles of every book in the Matchmaker series - each is a riff on a movie title. Peter is actually connected to Gladie the matchmaker - he’s Spencer’s brother and appeared in one of the books in that series. His adventures with Piper are full-on tongue-in-cheek; think suave spy with a touch of snark. Piper’s a bit of a badass herself which I always like to see. They first meet when Peter is sent to the California redwoods and runs into Piper who is literally running, naked and afraid, from captivity, but from whom, she has no idea as whatever has happened as stolen her memory. Along with their hacker friend Adesh, Peter and Piper move from country to country trying to discover who she is, who took her, and why she’s on someone’s list. It was a fun read. Their travels were reminiscent of the early books of the Fox and O’Hare series by Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg with a cast of distinctive, somewhat off-the-wall characters and a quick-moving story. Perfect beach read or for reading while curled up on a couch under a blanket while ice rattles your windows (exactly how I read this book). I’m looking forward to the next one and have already pre-ordered it - the series is that fun.

I was fascinated with this book. One twist after another throughput the book. I was disappointed to not discover Pipers identity by the end of the book. That was a typical way of putting a carrot in front of me to download the next book.

J’ai beaucoup aimé ce livre où règne mystères, complots, amour et bien d’autres choses. Un conseil : accrochez vous bien car aucun répit ne vous sera accordé. On passe de rebondissements en rebondissements et je dois dire que que je n’ai pas vu venir la fin de ce premier tome qui est une chose assez rare on peut le dire donc à souligner.
Coup de cœur pour les personnages qui sont justes hilarants et qui ne cessent de se mettre dans des situations compliquées.
J’ai hâte de la lire la suite et je vous conseille fortement ce livre ( assez facile à lire en anglais).

A good read where amnesia is perhaps the plot. The ending was a bit surprising not answering the basic question the story posed.
