What is this book about?
Trudi Coffey only realizes that she hasn’t seen Samuel Hill in weeks when the FBI shows up asking questions about him. After a strange encounter with an armed man demanding her help and an attack by a member of the Boston mob looking for someone named Dream, Trudi manages to find Samuel–or rather, he finds her. He’s made some pretty powerful enemies, but right now his full attention is on protecting Dream from the mob. Because Dream has something they want–the map to the location of artwork stolen from the Gardener Museum during the infamous 1990 heist.
With danger closing in from all sides, Trudi and Samuel will have to call on all of their allies to keep Dream safe and discover the identity of the people who have been hunting down Samuel. The real questions are whom can they trust? And who will make it out of this thing alive?
My review:
This is a strange review for me because I absolutely hated the end of the story. I wanted to throw the book across the room when I finished it. But it was still a five star read for me.
The story grabbed me from the first page and didn’t let go. The suspense was gripping and the emotional attachment I felt for all of the main characters (Trudi, Samuel, and Dream) was pretty deep. I loved that we got their three points of view expertly woven together to tell this story in just the right way. There was even a fun part reminding me of the National Treasure movie.
Even though the story did not end the way I wanted it too, it was too good to knock any stars off.
What I enjoyed most about this book:
The characters definitely took hold of me here.
What I didn’t like about this book:
The ending.
Would I recommend this book to others? Absolutely. Great suspense woven between great characters. This is the third book in the series. It can be read as a standalone, but there are some references to characters and situations from the first two books.
Where can I learn more about this author and their books?
