Another captivating novel by Allen Eskens. I found parts of this one to be more graphic than some of the others and had a hard time pushing through those parts but still a gripping story, nonetheless. I read the third book in this series first and so going back in time was quite cool - although I really enjoyed the narration from Lila's perspective in the third book even more. Can't wait to keep reading his books.
