A Mystery/Thriller, 2023 by Avid Reader Press, 304 Pages
What I Didn’t Like:
- There are a lot of characters to keep track of. If you have difficulty tracking large casts, be aware of that.
- The final chapter wasn’t overly necessary. I get why it was included but I didn’t think it was needed.
What I Did Like:
- Starting in the middle of action has risks, most obviously that you don’t know the characters and may not be invested in their plight. This does NOT have that problem. Before the first chapter is over your heart is racing and you feel the ping of sadness for this impossible and terrifying situation. Brilliant example of in medias res.
- Excellent action. This one will have you on the edge of your seat from page 1. It’s intense and doesn’t let up.
- Well researched. From the diving to the plane, you can tell this author did their research to make this one plausible. The techniques used and the details encountered are all well presented.
Who Should Read This One:
- Tension and action fans who want something that grabs you and doesn’t let go.
