4.5 Stars - Another good read in this series.

The subject matter is becoming more prevalent even in real society. A dangerous and nasty business!

C. M. Sutter takes no prisoners. She has no compunction against killing off sympathetic characters, or putting her protagonists in extreme danger. She has an amazing mind; creating bizarre crimes, with the baddest of the bad guys, and still makes you believe that it could happen. She's a master. Jade Monroe, her main character is smart, tough, kind, and resourceful. She always maintains her humanity and is engaged and engaging.
This story ranges over multiple states and terrains and is a definite page turner. I've read a number of Ms. Sutter's books, and there hasn't been one clunker in the bunch. Check her out. Buy her books and support her. She's a gem.

Probably the best in the series so far

One reason it's the best is there was more character development in this one and it made for a better story.
You can ignore this next if you want. I have a little quirk. I really dislike the term "continue on". I feel that often just " continue" is sufficient or some other word or words could be used. Throughout the four books I've read the term "continue on" has been used innumerable times. I've come close to just not reading any more of the series because of it, but I'm going to hang in there a bit longer.

C.M. Sutter is getting better with each book. More realistic, so you want to keep reading. I'm a little upset how in the reading e-book world, they are making more money because nothing is printed out, but after you read maybe four books of a series, they start charging more for the rest of the books because they know you are now sucked in. I think this stinks and is greed. I think many will stop reading series of books because of this.

C,M. Never fails

Another nail biting busy many twist and turns. Love that agent Monroe gets the bad people. This book relates to today with all the children being trafficked. Please read this an encourage others to read. If you see something say something. Ty CM for another great read.

Love heals all..

I know strange title but this story is gut wrenching... and sadly it happens all over the world. C.M. Sutter writes a great story full of every emotion possible. Very gripping. Jade Monroe is a bad ass!! This story
reminds us human trafficking is thriving and needs to be ended..
Give us the movie!

Enjoyed

I enjoy these stories. The only part I don't get is all the talk about what these characters are eating. I'm not sure why that's relevant. Besides that, I do enjoy this series.

Fantastic

The best book in the series. I normally read a book in 3 to 4 days. I was so caught up in the story I could not stop reading it until it was finished.

This book was the most difficult case for Jade and her partner. It is the fourth book in the series.
I hope there will be more to come.

This story, while difficult to imagine the evil in some people, just warmed my heart to see so much good in others.

Blood Legacy

In my opinion, C M Sutter outdid story telling. I love happy endings, love stories, bad men getting their just desserts and hope for future.
