This may be my favorite Strachan novel yet! I can see the growth of the characters as well as the increasing sensation of impending doom. I don't always enjoy writing Brenna Strachan because she is such a pessimist (who is obsessed with donuts), but I didn't have that problem with this novel. As a matter of fact, I managed to fall into a stride with her and that ran all the way to the end.
Don't kill me for the ending! :-D

And The Story Continues...
How Brenna gets herself into the situations she does, is crazy. Guess we have the authors imagination to blame, but that just makes it a good read. This is the third book in this series and the action and adventure continues. We get to see the Island and meet some new characters. Brenna gets in all kinds of trouble, which is no surprise to the rest of the family. The family plays a big role in this installment, and Jasmine makes a few appearances.
Overall, I gave this book five stars, because the editing has improved considerably. It is full of Brenna's witty retorts and sarcasm, plus everyone else's humor and witty responses to Brenna. There is plenty of action, mixed with possibly dangerous adventures, and of course a few surprises. The descriptions of the island and prison are done so well, that you can actually form a good detailed picture in you mind. I do like Hadena James' world of Brenna Strachan, and she goes about telling us about it. I really enjoyed this book and am looking forward to the last in the series.

Hadena James is just crazy good. I'm usually more into serial killer series like her Dreams and Reality series. I so fell in love with that series I had to try more. Even though I thought this might be too over the top for me, nope the crazy good is still there. I'm so hooked I may go broke buying absolutely every HJ story I can find.

The third installment of the Brenna Strachan Series is my favorite, intense story line and development of characters and plot lines is intriguing and enticing. I read it from start to finish in one sitting.
