The sci-fi action was great in this novel. I felt as if the story nailed the balance between too much information and too little. Like all time travel stories, it helps not to think too hard about the butterfly effect of changing anything.
It was fun to watch high-tech thieves from the future drop into the past. I enjoyed the thieving bits through the novel, too, and all the tech tools (tranq sprays and embedded ear-pieces) and old-school manual tools (lock picks).
The concept was cool, and the tension pretty high throughout most of the novel. It was a fast read. Clemence was an arrogant thief with an unhealthy disrespect for authority and people telling her what to do, which was both fun and terrifying to witness.
She and Nico are already together at the start of the novel, and I would have liked a deeper dive on that relationship and more importance built into it to further raise the stakes. I also wanted to know more about Trevor and what her deal was, but maybe that comes in the next book.

This you don't want to put down
I have known you for about 10 years now. You have always been someone special, especially to our grandkids. This I. Must say, is the best surprise from you yet. I have sat on the book for months, I was waiting for a hurricane and no power to read it. I got tired and kindle downloaded it a few days ago. I had to stop reading a couple of times but found it hard to put down. Now I find myself longing for the next. You out done yourself and can't wait for the next book. I thank you so much.

great job
It started off as something I didn’t think I would like, because it’s something I don’t normally read. GREAT job!
Thank you,
Jeff Howell
