With nothing but her wits, she must use her gifts to outsmart her adversaries. New threats and challenges emerge at every turn that require fast-thinking, bravery, and a little luck.

Edward Mullen is an author, blogger, and podcaster from Vancouver, Canada who is perhaps best known for his debut novel, THE ART OF THE HUSTLE and his techno-thriller series PRODIGY.
Born and raised in beautiful British Columbia, Edward developed a love for the wilderness. This love, combined with an innate curiosity about all things, eventually spawned a healthy imagination for storytelling. He continued to follow his natural passion all the way through to university. Despite spending a lot of his time indoors writing, Edward continues to enjoy the outdoors. He is an avid tennis player, mountain biker, snowboarder, runner, and traveller.
For the first half of the book, I thought this had something the previous two missed and made this slightly better: an interesting story. Clumsily executed with practically zero suspense, just flat tell-it-all narrative.
Then came the second half with endless fighting and no explanations or context. If I were to find one word for it all it would be be „pointless“. Why is any of this happening at all? What happened to motifs and plot purpose?
