Bad language. A bit hard to follow.
loved it!!!
This was an interesting read.
Intrigue, suspense and realistic all in one.
The dialogue is especially good. Characters are animated. Fleshed our by their speech and action. All in all an entertaining little tale.
Engaging story. Liked the characters. Author’s writing style unique.
Great read, 4.5 stars. Action, suspense, and a male lead I really liked. Plot twisted, but not necessarily implausible in a greedy, power-hungry world of global capitalism run rampant. It kept me guessing and reading.
I didn’t want to put it down!
Great edgy story with unexpected events. Definitely would read more with the two protagonists featured.
Can see this as a movie. Sandra Bullock as Elena. Quick easy read.
Didn’t see the ending coming. Entertaining quick read.
unexpected character in the who done it — Slow reading at times. Other than the few dry spots it was a good read
Didn’t even make it through the first chapter. Did not find it at all interesting.
Quick read with entertaing characters. Different than most lawyer driven stories. I enjoyed it and will look for other books by this author
liked it a lot
Sometimes hard to keep up with who is who.
A good fun read; very quick read.
I enjoyed this way more than I thought I would. A slow start, but a great finish!
This was a terrific read…couldn’t put it down! For those that thrillers with lots of twists and turns then don’t pass this thriller up….

I couldn’t put it down. I didn’t like the author’s style of writing, but I just kept reading. There were an awful lot of characters to keep track of, and at time it got confusing. But like I said I just kept reading.
