The Cipher by Isabella Maldonado
4.0
4 stars
This was like reading a really long Criminal Minds episode (not that that's a bad thing). If you like the show, you'll probably love this book. The most interesting part of this book was the team finding more and more information about the unsub. However, the plot itself was relatively predictable. One thing that got on my nerves was the fact that the team would EVER leave Nina alone when they know this guy is out there hunting her?? It makes no sense to me that she wouldn't have another agent with her at all times for safety. That seemed like a plot hole used to make sure the Cipher was able to find her.
