Undercover by Danielle Steel

4.0

---

I’ve long been a fan of Danielle Steel novels, but I haven’t read any of her more recent books. The synopsis for this story intrigued me. This book had a different format and feel then other books I’ve read by her. The characters were messy and complicated but still very relatable and understandable. Their stories were brought to life with rich detail and scenery. There was great moments filled with symbolism and parallels between the characters. Sometimes I wished there had be more of that. The pacing of the story and plot lines was just right throughout the novel. Things feel into place at the right time. However, the story was told in three parts and at times felt a bit disjointed in the beginning. The ending of the book surprised me (in a good way). I was expecting an abrupt ending and got the extra pages I always want at the end of a good book. Overall, the book was enjoyable and hard to put down once you sunk into its pages.
