(I received a free copy of this book from Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.)
After the breakup of her marriage, Evie takes the holiday of a lifetime. A few weeks of hiking, rafting and jungle adventure at an eco-lodge in Mexico sound ideal. But what should have been the perfect pick-me-up soon turns into a nightmare.
Nothing is quite what it seems. There are secrets hidden that can't be allowed to leave their jungle hiding place. And which their keeper will kill to protect.
If she is ever to see her son again, Evie will be forced to find reserves of strength, courage and ingenuity she never dreamt existed. Or die trying.
Another cracking novel from one of my favourite thriller writers. Why do I like him so? Let's go to the tape:
1) Pacing is everything is a suspense novel and this book does it just perfectly. Add to that the suspense that builds along the way, then you are already well on the way to a winner!
2) Strong characters are always a positive - Evie is just that. Tough and resilient, I found myself cheering for her throughout the book. Another positive right there!
3) There is always something "current" about his books and this story takes terrorism and the fight against it to a new level which I really enjoyed.
4) You always feel like you have been dropped into the middle of a movie set with these books and this one was no different. I think it would be an awesome film.
So, there you go -at least 4 reasons to go and check this book out. You won't be disappointed.

Catching up on some of the older books I have from when I didn't know what I was doing with netgalley, and didn't realise you had to wait to be approved, and ended up with rather a lot of books once I was approved. I've just gone to find this one to start and I can not find it anywhere on my kindle. I am going to go an purchase a copy and then I can still read and review it. I don't want to let you down, after approving me.
