5.0

Very well written crime thriller! This book did not have a dull moment, and I loved everything about it from the writing style, the plot, the characters (of course there’s always a villain in a good thriller), but overall very well written characters. 

Rating: 5⭐️
Format: eBook📲
Perfect for: Crime Thriller fans 
What I loved: Peter & Zsuzsa’s underlying love story. Alternating POVs from Scott & Peter
Pages: 287p

This story takes place during the time of 9/11. That alone, set the premises for a very good story. Scott works in the World Trade Center, and decides to take this tragedy to his advantage. He has been stealing millions from his clients, and what better way to avoid the consequences of these actions, then to pretend you no longer exist. Peter is an ex NYPD detective, and simply visiting the big apple on his honeymoon. Feeling compelled to stick around and see if he can help, he is hired to look for Scott & ultimately ends up in a cat and mouse game with him. Secret are revealed, as shocking moments continue throughout the story.

This was simply overall an amazing read, that makes me want to dive deeper in this author’s catalogue. I was entertained from start to finish and it was very well paced! Thank you to Voracious Readers Only for this reader copy! All opinions are my own.
