Let me start with I did like this book I did like the plot. However a book review is not a honest review unless you point out what you didn’t like. I wouldn’t say this a mystery but there are moments that surprise you and the plot is very realistic to what is kind of like a witness protection program without being hidden away by US Marshalls you are responsible for hiding yourself. I could actually picture the characters as if this was in movie form.
Ok so here is what I feel was the less likable part. The start of the book starts out tense and grabbing the few chapters makes you want more. The first couple parts of this book are very descriptive and informative but I feel like that is what kills the ending of the book. It’s almost like the author ran out of time and had to put a quick end to the story. I’m all for cliffhangers even with books that don’t have a part two but this cliffhanger kind of wonders off to the ending the characters actually deserved.
Michael Koryta is a great author regardless if I loved or loathed this book. He is an author I highly recommend please don’t let my review make you back away from this book. We all have our likes and dislikes.
