It is 1920, and both Prohibition and bootlegging are in full swing. When Isaac Bell’s boss and lifelong friend Joseph Van Dorn is shot and nearly killed leading the high-speed chase of a rum-running vessel, Bell swears to him that he will hunt down the lawbreakers, but he doesn’t know what he is getting into. When a witness to Van Dorn’s shooting is executed in a ruthlessly efficient manner invented by the Russian secret police, it becomes clear that these are no ordinary criminals. Bell is up against a team of Bolshevik assassins and saboteurs—and they are intent on overthrowing the government of the United States.

Most novels by Clive Cussler routinely become a slam-dunk success. The collaboration on this new book with writer Justin Scott (pen name: Paul Garrison) also being a very successful author himself, makes this particular novel outstanding. Set during the 1920s prohibition era, Scott’s research and contributions make the story come alive with historically accurate detail and texture. I found the main characters to be believable and entertainingly original. The plot held my attention through its many twists and unpredictable turns. The action is fast-paced with very few slow chapters. If you’ve read any of Cussler’s novels prior to this one you’ll have a good idea of what to expect. If not, “The Bootlegger” is as good a place to start as any. It is highly representative of his best work. Finish this book and you’ll very likely want more of his titles in your library.

I have been following the Isaac Bell series since it first debuted with "The Chase" (2007). And it's been like a fun roller coaster ride for me. I have enjoyed some more than others. My favorite novel still remains "The Wrecker" from 2009. However, "The Bootlegger" is a much-welcomed addition. The action sequence in the final pages of the book is one of the best. But it's not the plot I want to focus on, rather it's the characters. I think Pauline Grandzau has gone from essentially a walk-on role in "The Thief" (2012) to a real star here. I could be wrong, but I think Cussler& Scott are setting up readers for a spinoff of this series with Pauline and her new assistant Asa Somers working out of the Van Dorn office in Berlin. Isaac Bell readers, weigh in and tell me what you think.
A hat tip, as always, to Roland Dahlquist for his artwork that graces the pages in "The Bootlegger."
