Reviews

[Theresa · Rating 4 out of 5]

A lot of the excellent features of Shark but maybe not quite as finessed (is that a word?). It was kind of interesting to read this after reading the final book in the series - I thought I knew the ending but the plot still surprised me.

This is a great book. Have now read the trilogy in reverse order. I hate that so much of Pascoe's work is out of print when he is a truly amazing writer.
