Not as good as I had hoped
**Spoiler**
This book was not as good as the first. Suspect, similar to the first book, was looking for love…wives. I was not impressed with Nicky assuming every suspect was “the killer”. Demanding where the girls were. Interrogation was not thought out well. I may try one more in this series to see if it gets better. I do like the theory.

Ho-hum. Not his best book. Getting a little tired of the the main characters repetitive statements.

Found the audiobook on YouTube.
Continuing from book 1, FBI Agent Nicky Lyons continues with Agent Ken Walker on solving the cases assigned to them from the previous book.
However their next case were the missing girls last on the list and they got shot up to the top of the list with new evidence.
I really enjoyed this but I’m knocking off a star for the following:
• It’s a good book but would be significantly shorter if Lyons or Walker just used their gun once in a while.
•Lyons is still haunted by her kidnapping as a kid and the subsequent guilt of leaving her sister behind.
While I’m really enjoying this series, we don’t need about 10 reminders that her sister is still possibly missing. We know that from book 1. Where we were reminded in practically every chapter. I really do want to know what happened with Rosie.
• why are they not using Grace more in this book?

Nicky is young and is leading a group of people for the first time in her career. In All His, she and her partner are faced with the kidnapping of twin sisters, which makes the case much more personal for Nicky, because of her long-lost sister. She stresses herself with all kinds of doubts, has to face her demons, she does not always have the agreement of her partner to her actions, and has to fight hard to solve the case and put the culprit behind bars. A good story, that catches the reader's attention from the beginning.

Great sequel
When two sets of twins go missing, FBI Agent Nicky Lyons and her team is tasked with finding them. The first two are on their list of girls the Senator wants them to find. When a third set of twins go missing, they're in a race to keep any more girls from disappearing. Can she find the kidnapper before then? And does he hold the key to her own sister's disappearance?

Nicky Lyons is the team leader of a BAU task force charged with finding 10 different missing women. This unusual kidnapper has a preference for twins. He takes only female twins and keeps them to torment them. Her partner on the task force grudgingly admits her brilliance and is starting to trust her unconventional style.

As quick and easy to read as the first book in this series. We follow Nicky Lyons as she continues to work on her survivors guilt and trying to date again? All while easing into her new position as a team leader in the FBI? Her new missing person are actually missing persons! Can she find the twins before their fate is sealed?

2 - Not the author's best. And I think a similar doll storyline was in another of the author's series. I got frustrated with the repetitive angle of her choosing the wrong suspect in each book but of course she's certain. I think the author is better than this. Hopefully the next is better cause I do want to know what happened to Rosie.
By the way these are short - easy to read in one setting.

"You won't like what you find."
I have NO IDEA how Blake Pierce does it, but his books just fill my true crime nerdy self and I can't seem to get enough, regardless of which series it is.
This series, Nicky Lyons, is PERFECT for ANY and All who are Criminal Minds fans, and LOVE the BAU and FBI Profilers!
Once I start reading his books, I just can't stop! Onto Book #3!

Wow. It was so good and well written. Every chapter was a new clue to another mystery. I was waiting for each clue, the smallest. Now I have to wait for another book with agent Lions to find out

Blake has a way of captivating me
I like following the story line of how she's used her dark past to save women.
I'm always enthralled to read more and more rescues and to learn more about her past.

Not a fan at how obsessed Nicky is with finding her sister but guess we will see how it goes.

As a Dane this one frustrated me having to read several lines twice. Loved the story but didn't find it as good as the previous one

The story is good but the dialogue is not natural

The story line could be interesting but the dialogue is so unbelievable and ridiculous.
August 19, 2023
I really want to like these books and the author. The pace and cadence of the book is frustratingly clipped. Rarely are the sentences more than a few words long. The author had so many chances to paint a picture and transport the reader into the world of Nicky Lyons, but it never happened. All we get are short, declarative sentences with very little substance.
The quality of writing also suffers, in my opinion, from the trite inner thoughts and dialogue Nicky has with herself. It’s almost as extreme as “Nicky knew if she wanted to be a good agent she needed to keep trying” or “Nicky couldn’t quit. That would make her a quitter. And quitters who quit never succeeded.” Now those were my interpretations, but that’s how so much of the book felt. The writing quality seemed like it was written for a freshman creative writing class.
It is frustrating that the story develops these other suspects, and Nicky’s interactions with them are so weird. She just yells at them about the kidnapped girls. There’s no real questioning or development. It’s hard when I know from the onset that each of her leads in the first 2/3 of the book are wrong. It doesn’t make the book very much fun to read knowing that it will only get relevant in the last few pages.
On that same line, it’s incredible how unrealistic her investigations are. I don’t for a minute, believe that the FBI would send a single agent into these situations, yet she finds herself as the only one handling things. To me, it just makes the story laughable.
Once again, I was hoping to find another good series with a little bit of mystery and intrigue; but for me, Blake Pierce and Nicky Lyons are a total let down.

Nicky & her partner, Ken, are tasked with finding the person who is kidnapping twins. This case gets personal for Nicky because of the similarities of her sister's & her abduction years earlier. This has lots of flashbacks because of this.
