another stunning piece

This is another stunning piece of work! Like the author’s other books in this series, it’s a fast paced cliffhanger throughout. You won’t be able to put this one down until you’ve finished it and then you are tempted with another mystery for Adrian and Nick!!!

Fast paced

Action packed, and this was a resolution to Adrian s father s disappearance many years before. Not much character development.

Enjoyable

Very enjoyable. I think I’ve read better books in this genre, but I definitely enjoy a good female lead character
