Genevieve and her team are all in a panic when Nikki goes missing, then see her stealing a painting from her job as an art restorer. They learn that her ex and Eric’s Dad, Martin, is also missing, and track down some information, but not enough to find her.
Cleverly, she sends them a message about her location, and she and Martin are found, in Croatia. There begins an adventure, because the painting she took was part of a set of four with numbers hidden in them, a treasure map of sorts.
They find the treasure, but Florian, who orchestrated Nikki’s kidnapping, did so because his sister’s life is in danger. A client of Martin’s is suspicious, and he turns out to be part of the scheme to find the treasure for The Collector, as well as running a number of troll farms, and he threatened poor Florian.
He’s an unstable man, so he rigs a bomb on a cruise ship, and another at a church nearby. The team put it all together, with help from the Croatian SWAT group, who all race to stop the bombing and catch the criminal. They shoot him just as he’s about to shoot Colin and Jenny.
So much happens in these books, it’s exciting and entertaining, engaging my mind and body to want to run into the fray. It’s very well written and unfolds in such a way that all the pieces come together and make total sense.
This book begins a new chase as well, the pursuit of The Collector. Can’t wait to read the next book.
