Review by: Frank Evans on Dec. 26, 2012 : star star star star star
A good, easy read. I really enjoyed the story line and characters. I would like to see other works from this author. It kept my interest and held me captive until the surprising end. Not a James Patterson or Lee Child, but a good author none the less. Waiting to see more hopefully.

This is a very good book. The different twists and turns make it a real suspense mystery. The ending is a great plot conclusion that kept me reading and turning pages almost continuously. A very enjoyable novel. I will look forward to others by this author.
