Keeps Getting Better
Robert Tarrent does a great job of keeping you involved in the story by expanding the development of characters that are involved in Jack's life. You'll have a hard time putting the book down.

Quick Be Jack: a Jack Nolen novel (The Cap's Place Series #3)
Jack is taken into Bj's confidence to assist her in figuring out who leaked the info about Sissy's location at the secure hotel when Sissy was almost killed. Jack helps Bj create a timeline that indicates the Bj's partner, Tim is the only possible one who could have leaked the info. Meanwhile, Tim and Bj are investigating a series of night deposit snatch and grab robbers, and when they kill in one attempt, the investigation heats up and both Tim and Bj are involved in the next shootout. The story gets more twisted like Jack's girlfriend Elena and their relationship. This one's ending is one you won't want to miss. Thanks for another great read.

But not quick enough?
Same great characters, another exciting story ... I love this author's "Cap's Place Series," each book seeming to, only, get better and better! If you haven't read any of this fine author's books in this series, I'd suggest reading them, chronologically, though any/all can be read as a stand-alone book, as well. Another easy 5-Star rating ... and, I, sooo, hope that author Robert Tarrant writes another book or two (or three or four or more!) in this series, as I'd gladly purchase them all!

I am in love!!
I fell across the first two books in this series about a month ago. I was very not happy when I finished. I wanted more and I wanted more now!!! When I saw book three was out I downloaded immediately and did not stop until the end of the book. The characters are rounded out so well that they are friends to me now. The plots are very well thought out. I have not one single thing to say that isn't 100% positive. Thank you Mr. Tarrant for one of the most enjoyable series I've read in a long, long time. Keep on writing but maybe a little faster please??

Excellent
Loved book 3. The characters have evolved and storylines have gotten more complex. The writing style is just technical enough without being obnoxious. Looking forward to book 4.

Couldn't put it down
Great characters. Well paced. Kept me reading well past my bedtime. Very few, if any, technical errors, so no annoying distractions from becoming immerced in the story
Can't wait for the next book.

STORY??
Couldn't figure what this was about, except for tying up loose ends, then it was over. Still hoping for another book though
