faukdane 's review for:
Life for Life
by J.K. Franko
fast-paced
This book, the third installment in the Talion Series, threw me back into the turbulent lives of Roy and Susie Cruise, a couple that are knotted in a web of retribution and survival.
I love Franko's writing style, its always blade—sharp, precise, and at times, close to the edge. The characters were etched with a psychological depth that one might worry they'll leap off the page. Roy and Susie are a puzzle; their morality is as fluid as their circumstances, forcing me to question: What would I do?
There's a meticulousness to the plot, each twist is a deliberate step in a sinister dance, so its not a book for the faint of heart. The stakes are high, and the body count even higher. Franko didnt shy away from the consequences of the couple's actions; a trail of bodies and a looming threat of incarceration or death haunt every page.
It's a provocative read, rife with tension and moral dilemmas that lingered long after I’d turned the last page.
