My Review

I planned on reading a few chapters, and soon I was finishing the book, with non-stop action and your heart in your throat constantly, this is one compelling read.
You feel the injustice going on here, and some do no survive, and all the while you want for Good to overcome Evil, and the costs of what happens here, and you ask why? Well greed, of course, the almighty lure into crime, and the casualties that it leaves in its wake.
There is a slight romance story here, and I found myself wishing for it, but is not the main focus of this story, or is it? We do have “love” here, in several different forms, for mankind, animals, family, friends, but will these be enough?
Once you pick this one up you will be page turning right to the end!

I received this book through Celebrate Lit, and was not required to give a positive review.
