This is a book that sat on my shelf for far too long before I picked it up. It’s quite a short read and I found that I finished it in 2 sittings. It’s fast paced and action packed, but Lynn also demonstrates a remarkable way with words and in this short tale we get brief glimpses into some beautiful introspection and insight. The reason I haven’t rated this more highly is because I grew so frustrated at the potential that this book had to go more in-depth with the character studies. I really wanted to read more. I didn’t want to linger on an event so briefly but to explore it more fully. 
Overall, though, I would definitely recommend and look forward to reading more from this author!
