[Bill Leonard · Rating 4 out of 5]

I enjoyed reading this as it kept me interested and there was plenty of action to go around. I have read all the books up to this one and after a while, you get to know what is coming next. But I keep reading because I know what is coming will be really good! Just enough twists and a good story to keep me in this book as always. I enjoyed it, I like the main characters, and look forward to the next book in this series!

This was a good read. The story captured and held my attention much more than the last book in this series.
