My actual rating is 3.5 stars. Editing could have been better. The story itself was pretty good. Casey made a couple of decisions that had me fuming. I was able to figure out who his accomplice was early on.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Loved the plot and the characters. I had the villain picked out well before the end, but it is well worth the read.
