Synopsis from the back of the book:
Jed Patrick is convinced he’s doing all it takes to keep his family safe — new names, new location, new life. But just when he thinks he finally has a chance at a new start, trained men break in and threaten his wife and daughter, proving his family will never truly be safe until he eliminates the agency dead set on hunting him down.
Not knowing if Karen and Lilly are better off by his side or in hiding, Jed is determined to protect them while finding a way to use the classified information that he possesses to dismantle the Centralia Project. But he soon learns that eliminating Centralia may require compromising his own values. As danger escalates, Jed isn’t sure whether there’s anyone or anything he can trust — including his own senses.
My review:
Another roller coaster ride with Jed Patrick. The suspense… wow. This was one book that I had trouble putting down. The questions just kept coming. Who can Jed trust? How can he get him and his family out of danger and keep them safe? I really enjoyed rooting for Jed to find his way through the evil that continually came at him.
I was introduced to Jed in the first book, Centralia. I enjoyed getting to know him and his family more. I loved the way that his daughter, Lilly, hung tight to her faith in God which served as a reminder to her parents that God was the only one they could truly trust.
Jed loves his family, which endeared him to me. I wondered how he would handle making the choice between protecting them and having to do something that was against his values. On top of struggling with that choice, he struggled with people messing with his head. Poor guy. I stayed up late in order to find out what happens to him. Great read.
What I enjoyed most about this book:
Definitely the suspense. I just couldn’t put the book down, I had to know whether Jed and his family makes it out alive.
What I didn’t like about this book:
Some of the flashbacks pulled me out of the story but they were short enough that I was able to get right back into it.
My rating: 5 out of 5 stars
Would I recommend this book to others? Oh yeah. The suspense will keep you reading till the end. Like the first book in this series, it was like an action movie with an inspirational thread throughout. This is the second book in this series, but you do not need to read the first one in order to understand what is going on.
Where can I learn more about this author and their books?
