 I've seen a lot of reviews saying this was the worst installment in the series and that it was one convenient escape after another, but I don't think it felt more convenient than other books. I'd say there were more traps so I guess I could see why lucky escapes were more visible.

I liked it, though I'm not a huge fan of Scarlett being able to escape. Even at the end she didn't seem to see the error of her ways, so I have no doubt she's not working at some rescue, but plotting how to steal things once again. It does leave the door open for a continuation, though.
This one's a small complaint, but Ethan seemed particularly complain-y in this one.
