A strong 4.5 or a 5

Wow! What a whirlwind of a ride! Action packed read that I spent reading way too far into the night to finish. Let me start off by saying Cody Hoyt is not a likeable character at all . . . at least, not at the start. By the end of the book he had grown on me. Rather a rogue detective who doesn't stop until he gets the job done. A lot of twists and turns and unexpected happenings that really kept me engrossed. I am interested to see what the next in the series brings.
