If you are a bit like me, you would have been eagerly awaiting the latest book by J.D. Robb and it didn’t disappoint.

I couldn’t wait to get home to read it, it was a struggle as tea had to be made but I knew that I would be reading all weekend and nothing else would get done. This book gets you hooked with the mixture of suspense and intrigue. We all know that in the end Dallas and Peabody always get the bad guy, we just don’t know how, when or why. Let’s not forget Roarke and McNab, they always play an important part as well.

I’m not going to tell you about the story, you’ll just have to read it to find out what happens.
