Book excerpt: A new novel based on the hit TV series Leverage... The rich and powerful take what they want. We steal it back for you. THE ZOO JOB Marney Brillinger is in trouble. The zoo that has been in her family for generations is failing, and when she makes a deal with a Malanian priest to loan her two exotic black rhinos for a special exhibit, they never arrive. Now, she’s on the hook for hundreds of thousands of dollars to the priest, who was planning to use the money for sick children. Desperate, she turns to Nate Ford and his team for assistance. But finding two very large lost animals is no easy feat when the search involves duplicity—both international and close–to–home—and the unwelcome arrival of Nate’s nemesis, Interpol agent James Sterling. With Sterling around, if the team isn’t careful, they just might end up in cages of their own . . .
