Great Story

I enjoyed this book. The story was solid, as were the characters. The villain was sufficiently terrifying. Everything came together nicely. I do feel like the ending was somewhat rushed. After everything that went on, the ending was settled in about a page and a half. There are some editing issues...not horrible, but a tad distracting. For instance, in one paragraph, the charter captain's name is Captain Ted. The next, it was Captain Jack. All in all, though, the story remained intact.

I do recommend this book. I think fans of FBI/police procedurals with a lot of action will be pleased by it.

The first thing that caught my eyes was the title which was quiet interesting, the storyline was quick and kinda straightforward, the language was easy to understand and follow I would personally recommend this book to everyone as it’s clean not that graphic details.

The thing I wasn’t really impressed with was the FBI agent I liked how great he is with his team but I do believe that there are some times where as a leader you need to be more serious and not that friendly.

Nonetheless I loved the book I enjoyed the story took me a while to finish but I just like to read on my own base taking my time.

This book was never fully edited.

There were many instances in this book where a placeholder was used. The placeholder word was “scrotum”. Kind of gross. also, at one point, they referred to him by the wrong name.
