A 5* read
What an intense ride that was! I cannot even begin to explain how much I enjoyed this book, I have a tick list in my head and each point I feel is essential for a 5* book is being ticked off the list as being achieved here:
Easy to read and flowing ... tick
Interesting, believable and engaging characters ... tick
Intriguing and captivating plot ... tick
Complex but not confusing ... tick
Plot twists and red herrings ... tick
Full of suspense, secrets and lies ... tick
An ending you don't see coming (well I didn't) ... tick
And finally, a good cover that draws you in and makes you pick the book up in the first place ... tick
What more can I say? Mr Ritter has written a cracker here and although it's a part of a series, it works very well as a standalone so please don't let that put you off from picking this up and devouring in a very short space of time ... not because it's a short read but because once you start, it's extremely hard to put down.
Thank you to HarperCollins Maze, Avon and Netgalley for providing me with a copy in return for an unbiased review and for introducing me, yet again, to a great author.
