How can you make money from a painting that you don't own, can't steal, and couldn't fence even if you succeeded? What if you convince people you already had stolen it?An assortment of shady and brutal players in Collar Robber think that-leaving a corpse or two along the way-they can use that bright idea to gouge fifty million dollars from Jay Davidovich's employer, Transoxana Insurance Company. Davidovich, first met in 2012's Jail Coach, is a Loss Prevention Specialist. Fifty million would be a good loss to prevent. Cynthia Jakubek from But Remember Their Names has jumped from the gilded drudgery of lawyering with a big Wall Street firm to the terrifying adventure of starting her own solo practice in Pittsburgh. One of her clients wants to help Davidovich-for a hefty price-and stay alive in the process. Another wants to get married in the Catholic Church to a fiancée who was briefly wed years before to someone who now has an interest in the painting. An annulment is needed. As Davidovich and Jakubek face brawls on street corners and in court rooms, confrontations in brothels, confessionals, and Yankee Stadium luxury suites, and Tasers, machine guns, and religious vestments used as weapons, they have to remember that "take no prisoners" isn't always a metaphor...

A reasonably well-plotted story that does a decent job of balancing several storylines, with only a bit of confusion, particularly relating to the title. Jay and Cynthia are relatable characters and the supporting cast have distinct personalities. I wasn't a fan of a specific scene near the end of the book and there were a couple of other scenes where the characters made questionable choices, but over all it was a good read. I'd read another book featuring these two main characters.
