5.0

Such an enjoyable and taut thriller. I easily read this in one day because it engaged me right from the start and the urgency of the situation described in the story never let up. I found the events and actions of all the characters believable.

This is a very well written story and the audiobook narration by Steven Weber and Laura Benanti was top notch. Their ability to inhabit the unique personalities of the distinctive characters really brought the story to life, especially as there are many emotionally charged situations that required thoughtful delivery in order to avoid being overly dramatic. 

I highly recommend the book in any format and will be on the lookout for more from this author!
