Tracking down a woman for his client seemed like an easy job. But private investigator Ric Alvarado and his assistant Annie Dugan get caught up in the world of notorious crime boss Gordon Burns. When the FBI gets wind of it, Agent Jules Cassidy asks Ric and Annie to go undercover and gather information about an agent to had been placed in the Burns compound but has missed several check-ins. Jules is working the case when he comes face-to-face with Robin Chadwick, a movie actor who once broke Jules' heart. Robin is in town promoting his new movie, and Gordon Burns is a movie buff who is throwing a party for the star. Robin invites Jules, Ric, and Annie to the party which gives them a way into the Burns home to search for clues to what happened to the last agent they planted in the Burns compound.

The action/suspense portions of this story were very well written. I had a hard time putting this book down. Ric and Annie are new to the Troubleshooters series, even though we did get a glimpse of Ric in a previous book. They've known each other for years and there is an attraction between them that Ric is reluctant to act on. I liked both of these characters and hope they show up in future books. But the characters I was most looking forward to in this book were Jules and Robin. Robin is in the closet and is not willing to come out to his fans. He also has an alcohol problem but won't admit it. Jules wants a man who will be his partner, not someone who hides his true self from the public. The attraction between the two characters is off the charts. I was very happy with their story. I know we will see more of them in this series. My ratings: 5 Stars.
