Synopsis
In the words of Lee Child on Gone to Dust, "I want more of Nils Shapiro." New York Times-bestselling and Emmy Award-winning author Matt Goldman happily obliges by bringing the Minneapolis private detective back for another thrilling, standalone adventure in Interceptor.
A wealthy, elderly woman hires Nils to check on her grandson, Ebben Mayer, who recently turned thirty years old and received his fifty-million-dollar trust fund. He's since moved to Los Angeles, and his grandmother is worried he's foolishly throwing away his money, investing in show business. She's especially anxious since Ebben's fianc e passed away from a caffeine overdose, and she's wary of her grandson's emotional state. It's an easy, lucrative job, chasing down a rich old lady's concerns and Nils accepts.
Nils's easy money job gets more complicated in Los Angeles when he suspects Ebben's fianc e was murdered and Ebben's life is in danger. Nils gets sucked into Ebben's professional life, meeting his agent, manager, a screenwriter, and a producer -- all of whom seem to have dubious motives. The more Nils uncovers, the more it threatens the dream life he's finally achieved.
