4.0

New to me author and I will definitely keep reading the series. The story gets off to an uneven and confusing start. I kind of felt like I was starting a few chapters in.  And the setup that starts the ball to the rest of the action rolling seems hard to swallow. This guy is the best of the best operative but he doesn’t know how long he’s been gone on his most recent assignment? His wife can sell his house without him as a party to the sale? He a super skilled agent who can find anyone but he spends weeks driving all over the country looking for a woman and two kids with no similar skill set? It just doesn’t track.

But once we get into the actual precipitating event and the meat of the story things take off. It’s an intriguing premise, though I don’t think I understand the whole coin thing, and action builds and the tension mounts. The whole final scene has you holding your breath.

The ending provides the setup for book two. I’m intrigue enough to keep reading.
