My review:
I have only read one book by this author before I read this one, and remember thinking it was OK, but nothing spectacular. Maybe it is because she has more writing under her belt, but this book was a terrific read. In addition to being a great suspense novel, the author tackles the human trafficking issue, which is something we all need to be aware of and learn more about.
I liked everything about this book: plot, characters, setting. This book is classified as romantic suspense, but that part of the book took a back seat to the action and suspense, and was not overdone at all, and it wasn't all wrapped up in a neat package at the end either. As with many books like this one, I had a hard time putting it down and read it in one sitting.
This is the first book in a series, and I look forward to reading the other books that will follow. The author has a plot going on that will cover at least one more book, and has me hooked, waiting to see
