Enjoyed the Queen very much but thought it was not as good as the one before. Had some really good twists and turns, but i think the dialogue struggled at some points. The best part was definitely Patrick’s and Tessa’s relationship as step father and daughter, as well as the relationship between Patrick and his brother, who is introduced in this book. As always highly recommend as a good thriller but had to give it less stars due to some parts that I felt were roughly written.
The Queen , 5th in the Bowers series.. Each one is better than the last.. this book was very good. As well as the 4 before it.. It is so easy to feel as you are part of the story.. Outstanding writing.. On to the next Opening Moves.. Great Series..
