"UPPERCUT JONES is here to smash your rudeness and fixation with gun violence!"
— Mervin Kalani[1]

Jones, a character in The Heist: Monaco book, is a potential member of your crew. He is first seen in Chapter 2.

Appearance

Mervin has black hair, brown eyes, tan skin and a beard. He wears a dark gray t-shirt, gray trousers and a gold chain necklace. He is noted to be a massive man over six and a half feet tall, with biceps the size of tree trunks. He weighs about 300 pounds.

Personality

While his dream is to be a wrestler, he is actually a very peaceful and optimistic person who constantly looks out for others, whether it be if someone is drunk and can’t get home to even your character with the Heist. He takes the time to get to know everyone he meets, and is always there to lend a helping hand... or fist.

Relationships

Your Character

You can choose to either recruit Mervin or Lena as your crew's muscle. If you recruit him, you can build up his trust in you. If his trust is high enough, in Chapter 14 he will say that it's important to him to tell you that he feels you have bonded on your journey together.

Samira Yazdi

If Jones and Samira Yazdi are both on your team, he will say that her Blackbird voice is frightening and that he suggests doing yoga or tai chi. In Chapter 14, they will work together to get her inside the building. He dresses up as a guard and pretends to take her to the holding cell. When he has to knock out one of the guards, he apologizes to her that she had to see that. She will reply that it was one of the better ways of taking him out. The other method would have put too much pressure on the spine. He will be thankful hearing it.

Anton Edison

If Jones and Anton Edison are both on your team, Anton tells him that he can be Jones's pro wrestling sidekick. While Jones is flattered, he tells the younger man that he is in a weight class that some call 'Super Babyweight', and so it wouldn't work.
