Thriller

This was one of my favorites in the series so far. ( )

I love the stories involving kendra Michaels. She brings so much to her story line. I like that Irish Johansen hasn't let us forget that Kendra was blind and how she has evolved since getting her sight restored. Keep them coming. ( )

It's just a couple of years ago that I read my first Iris Johansen book. It was an Eve Duncan book and I just loved it since then have I read several from that series and some from this the Kendra Michael series.

Kendra Michaels was born blind, but she got her sight back as an adult and she has a keen sense for details that other miss which help a lot when FBI needs her help. Like this time when a woman is killed just a couple of blocks from Kendra's Condo. A woman carrying an envelope with Kendra's name on it.

The beginning of the book was intriguing. Kendra was given a video of a wedding and she has no clues as to why since she doesn't know who the woman who was killed. Nor does she recognize anyone at the wedding. So, first, must they figure out who the people at the wedding are.

Beside the case is Kendra dealing with her "relationship" with Adam Lynch. The attraction is there, but she has trouble giving in to him. Perhaps this case will bring them together. I love that private investigator Jessie Mercado has a part in this story. I would love to see her get her own book (or series) someday.

The case was the best when everything was still unknown. The reason for the death of the woman (and the later ones killed) was a bit of a disappointment. I was hoping for a more conspiratorial angle rather than the one that the book presented. Still, I liked the book and I'm looking forward to the next one!

I want to thank St. Martin's Press for providing me with a free copy through NetGalley for an honest review! ( )

Didn’t realize it was part of a series until I thought to look it up half way through. Interesting concept for a protagonist, but there’s just no depth to the characters. I also felt lost 70% of the time because, while you can read it as a stand alone, I wouldn’t recommend it. Too many callbacks and inferences to previous installments to try and understand it. ( )
