4.0

 Foley takes the skills she was refining in The Hunting Party and dials them to 110% in this novel. She builds incredible tension and intrigue throughout and keeps you on your toes. If it wasn’t so rated R it would be a great book for high school English to study literature and storytelling devices for mysteries and thrillers. Incredible writing, but I’m not really in the mood right now for these types of books. Back to fantasy and romance for me…
