Reseñas de la Crítica

"A slick, fast-paced thriller from a master storyteller." (L. J. Ross)

"Packed with no-holds-barred action and memorable characters. It's a blast!" (James Swallow)

"New thriller writers come and go. I suspect this lady will stick around." (Frederick Forsyth)

I wish I would have liked it

I not sure where to start of start on this review. Everything was within the book, I just didn't care for. I don't think I care for the characters was the main reason for not enjoying this book. Interesting ending but for the most part the plot was over the top and, again, I had no feelings for the characters at all. If there is a sequel, I don't think I will bother listening to it. It wasn't that the book was not well written, it just didn't trip my trigger and pull me in and leave me waiting for the next installment.
