Thanks to Macmillan Audio and Flatiron Books for the complimentary audiobook.
I read book 2 first (this book), but I loved the character of Nikki Griffin so much that I had to go put book 1 on hold at the library immediately!
I love Nikki as a character. She is tough and resolute in her beliefs but soft hearted when warranted.
When Nikki is hired by the elite Johannessen family, she thinks she is just tracking down a conman who targeted a very wealthy elderly woman. But soon she is pulled into a web of secrets and danger that she handles in her smart and tenacious manner. Plus her young sidekick in this one was a stellar secondary character and I hope he shows up in book 3 (please tell me there is a book 3!).
This is a fast paced action crime thriller that is a fight between good and bad and sometimes lands in the murky middle. I blazed through this book as I found it wildly entertaining.
