Sinopsis


From Award-Winning, bestselling author, Gary Ponzo, comes another Nick Bracco thriller!


In this high-octane thriller, Nick Bracco, FBI's top anti-terrorist agent is drawn into the hostile environment of the Arizona-Mexico border. A member of his task force is ambushed by Mexican assassin, Antonio Garza, known as, "The Butcher," while trying to prevent the cartel staffer from transporting a dirty bomb into the US. As the agent is on the verge of slaughter, he calls Bracco with one last plea: Kill him.


>>Unable to Trust US Law Enforcement, Bracco Turns to the Mafia


Garza, however, uses his cartel money to reach over the border and secure a network of US law enforcement to be on his payroll. Bracco is forced to track him down with just a couple of agents he can trust, plus his cousin Tommy. Tommy is a shrewd character with extensive Mafia contacts who offer their underground assistance as Bracco spearheads the deadly game of Sicilians versus the cartels.


>>>Can Nick Bracco track down Garza before the assassin finds him first?

Good tension. Tommy is working his way up to his own series.men-s-adventure4 s Kimberly 635 86

Suspenseful

I received this book through a Goodreads Giveaway. Its an action adventure story regarding Special Forces heroes, Mexican cartels and Mexican politics, as well as Islamic terrorists and American government and agencies. In other words, it covers all the bases. A little too violent for me but action lovers will enjoy this one.

Author, Gary Ponzo, provides a fast-paced, gripping, and intense read with his latest instalment in the popular, Nick Bracco series.

The author turns on the excitement from the opening chapter and keeps the flame alight throughout. With well-developed leading characters, Nick and Matt, and a heady mix of villains I was totally absorbed by this terrific story. As readers we are introduced to a different world, a world where danger is an ever-constant fact of life. The dialogue is superb together with a highly descriptive narrative which makes you feel part of the story.

I have no hesitation in giving ‘A Touch Of Greed’ five stars, highly recommended to all who enjoy edge of your seat thrillers.

Ponzo's Bracco books just keep getting better and better. the others, this one is a face paced ride that never lets you catch your breath. I couldn't put this book down until I had finished it. Gary Ponzo is probably the best quality indie author I have ever read--I don't understand why he isn't on the top 5 sellers' list; it's a shame that not enough people have discovered him yet. He deserves to be at the top and hopefully someday that will be where his Bracco books will be sitting. 1 Richard177 12

Ponzo did it again! God I love this series, the latest Nick and Matt installment did not disappoint. Well written, timely for world events and a true pleasure to read... Me being an author myself I'm going to go broke buying all of Ponzo's books... 5 stars across the board, check this series out guys and gals... You will love them all... Keep up the good work Gary, I can't wait for the next one.1 Lisa7 3

I received this book from a goodreads giveaway, that being said I thoroughly enjoyed the authors previous Nick Bracco installments and would have gotten back to this series eventually(too many books, too little time). The story was fast paced, the characters all interesting, the villain a little hokey(which I enjoy). Looking forward to reading the next.1 Marissa3,204 41

A Touch of Greed

Excellent story about FBI agents, drug cartels, murder and caring human beings who have each other's backs. Very entertaining and interesting novel. 1 Gina G Davis4

What starts out with Nick Bracco looking for the killer of two fellow FBI agents turns into a chase of a nuclear weapon being brought into the United States for Palestinian terrorists. 1 John1,187 5

In this the 3rd story, Nick is at home with his wife Julie when he receives a call from one of his team members who is undercover in Mexico. The message that he receives is for him to kill the Butcher.

Nick with his partner Matt, start an investigation into the killing. The only way that the Butcher could now that was an FBI agent is if someone within the organization told him. This leads to a larger investigation relating to bringing a dirty bomb into the U.S. Because of Nick's involvement, Nick's wife Julie is targeted for abduction and during this attempt, Jennifer Steele, Matt's girlfriend, is killed protecting Julie.

Matt brings his cousin Tommy into the fold and with Stevie's assistance they go to the border to attempt to stop the bomb coming in.

If you want to find out how it ends and who the unknown contributor is, then you need to read the book which I highly recommend. Roberta365 5

Special Forces team members Nick and Matt provide the reader with a detailed look inside Mexican cartels. They are tasked to locate a dirty nuclear bomb which is about to reach the U.S. border, which they later realize will be primarily through a series of tunnels. The cartel has already killed two team members plus Matt's girlfriend, also a team member. So Matt is out for revenge. The cartel also attempted to kidnap Nick's wife and son.

There's much suspense, thus the reader will be swiftly turning pages. I actually would've d the story to be just a tad longer to savor the suspense. Dave466

Thank you to author Gary Ponzo for this FREE Kindle copy of A Touch of Greed. And thanks to Goodreads for hosting the opportunity.

Well done. A good read. Had a nice pace and set set of characters to keep the story moving along. Just a handful of editing oversights, unfortunately seen as 'pretty darn good' in today's lax e-book world, but other than that, a highly recommended read for those into the action/thriller genre.

OH WOW! Sad first of all for a death! BUT, revenge is sweet and it will happen, and that $5 million worth of joy! All the characters, mostly, a bomb, scary cartel from Mexico! I will be buying all of Gary Ponzo's books because they are Steve Harvath/Travis McGee worth it! Oh, and I won this 3rd one from Goodreads Giveaway/Amazon Kindle but bought the 1st 2 & read them before reading this one. You don't "have" to but it will help!amazon-kindle giveaways Margaret Yelton1,894 36

I received Touch of Greed in a Goodreads giveaway. I loved the book it gives a good depiction of what I assume goes on with the drug cartels. This book was very well written, action packed and full of suspense. It was a hard book to take a break from. I would certainly recommend this book and series to others. Dave132

Another action-packed Nick Bracco thriller! I’ve done myself a bit of a disservice, though, by reading books 6 and 7 before I read books 3, 4, and 5. It doesn’t lessen the excitement of Gary Ponzo’s writing, but I had an inkling of what the twist was before it happened. Nevertheless, still a great read, as usual.

Books 4 and 5 are left before I’m caught up with the series. Pam Zemball156 6

Action packed

If you are looking for a team of American patriots that will not stop, you have found the right series of books.. there are 7 books in all .. Nick, Matt, and Tommy and all the rest will take you for a ride from page 1 to the last page. A book that is a can not put down and full of action.. I only hope that Mr. Ponzo continues to write for a very long time.. MaryKaye244 2

As usual, another excellent book. I enjoyed it very much. Lots of heart stopping action, along with lots of love. Love of country, love of family.

I received this book free from Goodreads for a honest opinion.

The Nick Bracco books are one of my favorites. Have only read 3 so far but none disappoint. Great characters that leave you on the edgo of your seat as you wonder how they will get out of their various predicaments. Judi Berlin7

This is an exciting thrill ride from beginning to end. It starts out gripping your attention and never lets up. I did not realize it was the third in a series. It seemed stand alone enough for me but I will read the first two books now to be certain. Thank you Goodreads for this wonderful present. Alice8

Very suspenseful and timely in today’s political climate. I appreciate getting this book through Goodreads Giveaway. This is the second Nick Bracco book I have read and definitely plan on reading more.giveaways Connie Hamby823 5

Action

Right out of the gate and shootout, then by chapter 10 a very sad part. Cartel has nothing over Nick and friends though, maybe Tim14

Great attention keeper

I d the attachment to current events. I also the established characters. Obviously the twist with success was fun Thomas Lennek136 4

An exciting read

Well defined characters, interesting story arc. Fast paced plotting. Really bad drug cartel guys (are there any other kind)? An evening well spent. Thomas A Peden226 5
