A wonderful ending to the trilogy.
NOTE: The three books, Suitcase Girl, The Curator and The Hatchery, need to be read in order. They are, in fact, one long book & story.
I enjoyed all three books. The story is unique, interesting, active. The characters are true and have their personal issues. Everything comes together in an intriguing and mysterious way. Despite some unlikely scenes, the actions pull the reader into the story and we root for Abby, Xiaolian and the others.
In The Hatchery, we learn about where Xiaolian came from, how she was raised and what brought on her escape in the first place. It's an adventure filled novel.
A fun trilogy, with an interesting and unique story.

“Nobody puts Baby in a corner” and nobody puts Xiaolian back in the suitcase! Of course there were more than one and the powers that be wanted more and … This is NOT the end Ty!!! I enjoyed the first three stories and I will also enjoy the fourth!!! I also recommend this story.

Such a good read
Did not end at all like I expected it to but I really loved it. I hope we can revisit the 5 someday and see how things are!

This was the third and final book of the Suitcase Girl Trilogy. We finally discover how Xiaolian ended up in a suitcase and why. None of the trilogy books are stand alone...you have to start with Suitcase Girl, continue on with The Curator and end with The Hatchery. You have to do it in that order. I can almost guarantee that after you finish the first one, you'll be a little annoyed that there is absolutely no closure and it's just a set-up for book two. You might even be a little defiant and refuse to be duped into reading the second book. You may stand upon principle for a day or two. But you're going to eventually fold and grab the second book. Or at least, that's how it was for me. On the upside, these are really well written books. They're action packed. The characters are interesting. The plot is original and creative. Each book (I read them on my kindle) included the first few chapters from the next. Even at the end of the final book, an excerpt from the next Abby Kane series was included. I will likely eventually read it, but for now Agent Kane and I need a little break.
Highly recommend. I love this series and this author.

Another great book! Excitement, adventure, twists and turns. The FBI headquarters has been attacked with many killed or injured. Who is behind these attacks and why? This book takes Xiaolin back to China after all other leads have come to a dead end. There must be answers in China. China is where Xiaolin came from. Can they find a link? Are there others like Xiaolin, why? The suspense is great. The chase exciting. The ending is something you don’t expect, but one that you’ll remember for a long time. I love Hutchinson’s books, they are always thrilling and full of surprises!

This is the same review as what I posted for "Suitcase Girl."
I just finished the three books in the Suitcase Girl Trilogy and can say that I enjoyed each one of them. I think they have to be read in order to make sense, but in doing so, they also read well as individual books. I think the premise is fascinating (I don't want to give it away). And Abby Kane is a likeable lead character. I plan to read other books featuring her.

More questions...
So, this was a trilogy that answered some questions but left you with more questions. I like that if there are more books to come...this left me feeling open and not tied up neatly. Hopefully, there are more to come. This was a different kind of thriller; one that I could see really happening.

The book doesn’t disappoint in regards to my expectations of plenty of descriptions of food. The story was good although it seemed to be a little unbelievable as far as how the characters got out of jams. I really like Abby and Kang. I was a little disappointed in the end because it left questions unanswered; however, I think that was the intention of the author.

Book 3 of this trilogy. Archer (CIA), Abby and Kang go to Shanghai with Xiolan to find the mysterious island where she and the others have boon raised. Xiolan and her friends have a plan. They just need help getting off the island. The plan is to end the DNA experiments that produced Kaolin and her friends. Good conclusion

Competent follow-up to “The Girl in the Suitcase”, with open ends to start off new series, as well as further adventures of Agents Kane and Kang. Some typos still in evidence but nothing too aggravating.

Not as good as the first two in the series, but I needed to know how this series ended. Loads of spelling mistakes across all three books which is a bit irritating, but the storyline is still interesting enough to ignore them.

The end of a truly amazing series, I hate that it's over!
An absorbing story of love, friendship and espionage. Although this is the last of the Abby Kane FBI Thriller series it's as enthralling as the first! Well written every time!

Superb!
This is another great work by Ty. A gripping page turner with a truly fitting ending. Something one might actually expect from the Chinese. It also probably is possible or soon will be!

I highly recommend this book. Part of the Suitcase Girl series and just like the rest it is well written with all the twists and turns I love to assure me of many sleepless nights page turning furiously!

This book is an action-packed thrill ride with a few cool twists. On my scale of 1 to 5, 1 being don’t bother and 5 a real page turner, I give The Hatchery, a 5. Check out the full review at https://refort.co/book-review-the-hat...

I loved reading about all the food PoPo prepared bringing back memories of my time in China. It is a quick and exciting read as long as you suspend your beliefs of reality and just enjoy the descriptive writing and fast paced escapes.

The Hatchery
Well, The Hatchery sis not disappoint. Like all the other books by this author, it was a winner in every way. I keep wondering why Abby Kane isn’t a tv series, except I love reading books.

I had absolutely no idea where this trilogy was going and the ending blew my mind. The author really gets you engaged with the characters even if you really want to dislike them

The Island
Excellent story. I read all three books in two days. I was committed I couldn't stop reading.
I hope there will be a book four. You can't leave me hanging.

Ok, but...
Expected more of this book as enjoyed the first two more. Also left unanswered questions, so a bit of a disappointment.

Unbelievable...Heroes with superpowers without the benefit of a spider bite. Last minute trains, buses, and taxis appear just at the right time.

Great series! Loved the first two - The Hatchery seemed to bog down a little in the middle of the book, but then picked up again!

Definitely the favourite of the trilogy. Questions answered finally and action to boot. I wouldn't mind another installment.
