This book was a head spinner – if you can’t agree with anything, you gotta agree with that. I mean, I’m still so ‘WOW’ about the whole thing. First off, let’s get this out of the way. The length. This book is long and honestly, unnecessarily long. I think most of my comments come from the…

I’m giving this book 3 stars, but that is me being really nice. Huge Sager fan and I’m honestly baffled. This just simply isn’t that good. I think a good group of us readers are heartbroken as we really, really want to like anything Sager puts out. What’s wrong with the book? Well, the first…

I did enjoy diving into the Sri Lanka world and a typical thriller written in a different setting that you don’t get to experience often. The truth though, there isn’t anything outstandingly impressive with the story or writing. Nothing…

My only note while reading was ‘struggling to get into the characters’. Now as I’m finished reading the book, I will say I could change that to, ‘struggled to care about the characters’. The book is very underwhelming. I’m sorry to harp on these style of books so much, but if you are going to…

To sum it all up on the first line, this book was’meh’. I liked what they tried to do here, but just didn’t have any spunk that made me ‘get into the story’. The storyline, the subject matter, the ‘thrill’ didn’t come together to make me want to read it. I honestly started dreading having…
