Heat 2 by Meg Gardiner, Michael Mann
3.5
adventurous dark funny mysterious tense fast-paced

 SURE!

A fun heist novel that is wonderfully over-the-top in many ways (I read a couple sentences of a sex scene to my friends when they asked what I was laughing at), but provides a great backstory for the characters we met in the movie Heat. The heists, the action, the detectives and Chris, and a psychotic criminal (a la Waingro), all intriguing and loved the wild ride. There was one great payoff near the end, but then the book doesn't quite land entirely successfully.

3.5 stars, would watch this movie.
