What a no-holds-barred ride this book is. It grabbed me from the first page and didn't let go once. There is so much action I was almost afraid to blink for fear of missing something. Mr. Biocchi definitely knows how to play on his readers' emotions and get them stirred up. This was one of those books I really didn't want to put down. I had to see what happened next. If I had to come up with one "criticism" I guess I would have to say that the story doesn't flow in a straight line. There are events that occur and then the story goes back a bit and catches up with other characters. It was a bit confusing the first time I came upon that, but I figured it out pretty quickly. All in all, an amazing read. I highly recommend it and look forward to the next book in the series. I received a review copy from BookSirens and this is my honest opinion. I want to thank them and Mr. Biocchi for the opportunity to read it.

‘Bought’ this on Stuff Your Kindle Day not knowing it was part two in a series of five. I feel like it holds up as a standalone novel, but it’s absolutely nothing to write home about. Kept me engaged but I did read it pretty much all on one flight, when I had nothing else to do. Not bad by any means, but I’ve read better. Story was fast paced but characters were a little thin. That being said, for a short palate cleanser between two genres, this will do the job.
So the start is good, then ruined by the authour using the mouth of a drug addict to fill pages with the F bomb and other slurs. I stopped reading then and didn’t even look at the end to see how it ended. Could have been good but for gratuitous swearing. Cause some authours think everybody uses that kind of language.
The List is brilliant story, such a page turner! Every twist and turn kept my interest from start to finish. The suspense was a nail biter. Rachael was so engaging, and John in spite of his well planned crimes, had me routing for him right to the end!
A very good read, even guessing how it will end made for a gripping roller coaster ride read. Excellent characters with engrossing and entertaining storytelling. I recommend.
