About
the book from Harlequin
New York
Times bestselling author Allison Brennan's newest
thriller again features an edgy young female LAPD detective and an ambitious
special agent, both part of a mobile FBI unit that is brought in to investigate
the unsolved murder of a college activist and its alleged ties to high stakes
crime in the desert Southwest.
Something mysterious is killing the wildlife in the desert hills just south of Tucson, Arizona. When Emma Perez, a college-intern-turned activist, sets out to collect her own evidence, she too ends up dead. Local law enforcement seems slow to get involved. That’s when the mobile FBI unit goes undercover to infiltrate the town and the copper refinery located there in search of possible leads. Costa and Quinn find themselves scouring the desolate landscape that keeps on giving up clues to something much darker—greed, child trafficking, other killings. As the body count continues to add up, it's clear they have stumbled on more than they bargained for. Now they must figure out who is at the heart of this mayhem and stop them before more innocent lives are lost.
Brennan's latest novel brims with complex characters and an ever-twisting plotline, a compelling thriller that delivers.
My Review after reading the book
A small town
and one suspicious death lead to more deaths, child trafficking and people that
will stop at nothing to protect their interests.
I was really
looking forward to this next book in the Quinn & Costa Thriller series by
Allison Brennan. I really loved how the characters interacted in the first book
and was anxious to see how their story developed in this next book. This book
was multi layered, complex and the author did a fabulous job taking the reader
on a thrilling journey. You could read this as a stand a lone novel as the back
story of the characters is written into the story throughout the book, but
personally I do enjoy starting the story from the beginning of the series.
Although I
enjoyed the book, I kept looking for that cheekiness of Detective Quinn to come
through and would have loved to have seen more interaction between the two main
characters. This book jumped right into the crime and had many characters
interacting, which is not a bad thing, but I personally expected more of the
same banter as was in the first novel. I would like to thank author Allison
Brennan, Harlequin Publishing and Netgalley for an advanced reader copy in
exchange for my honest review.
