A review by maryehavens
Illegal by Francisco X. Stork

5.0

I really thought this was going to be a trilogy. I wasn't sure how it was going to wrap up but glad it did so I could be spared the legal aftermath :)
I don't know if Stork did his research or just has a great mind but everything that happened could 100% happen. Or maybe it already has or, God help us, is currently? I would hate to think there would be that much corruption stateside but I wouldn't put it past anyone. Like Sarah says - greed, weakness, etc. there's lots of reasons why people would make choices that would lead to this kind of pain for others.
The writing was so good and kept me interested in both novels, a rarity for me since I tend to lose interest after one book. I had to know what happened!! I also think Stork does an excellent job of portraying the difficulties of immigration from multiple points of view.
Highly recommend both books for a gripping story of modern good vs. evil.
