A rebellion is brewing in the world of the Lake of Sins while Hugh Truent sits in prison days away from his execution.After taking his findings about the genetic similarities between the classes to the Supreme Almighty and the Council, Hugh had been arrested for treason and all his evidence had vanished as if made from smoke.To protect his family, he cut off all contact with the outside world … outside world while he sat in prison for over four years waiting for his execution. He has no idea that some of his reports were leaked to the other classes and that civil war looms on the horizon.
Trinity and her friends have no hope of winning the war unless they can unite the classes. In order to do that, they need someone everyone will follow. They need the one person all the classes trust and believe in. They need Hugh.
That means they have to break him out of a maximum security prison and convince him to lead their army, but that won’t be easy because Hugh wants revenge and he’s not going to let anything get in his way especially mouthy, attractive, know-it-all Trinity.

Lake of Sins: Hangman’s Army; Book 3 of the Lake of Sins stories is the most compelling yet. I read a lot, and a wide variety of subjects, authors and genres; this is one of those tales which stays with you – you struggle to put it down and when you do, you are eager to get back to it and in the meantime you are thinking about it.
Hugh was imprisoned after the events in book 2 and here, Trinity, Jackson and others help him escape from prison just before his execution. Life has changed, not always for the better and not everywhere. Hugh is wanted as the face of revolution, an attempt to overthrow the Almighty and their ways, but he has witnessed enough death and wants no part of it. Circumstances allow Trinity to extract a promise of his co-operation, and the two of them are thrown together on a perilous journey. They are attracted to one another, but for different reasons, neither wants to push their relationship into the realm of romance.
Plenty of death, danger and distress. Not for the faint-hearted. Some dislike the romantic aspects of this tale, but I feel it only increases the reader’s empathy for the characters, especially as it is Trinity’s existence which has brought these events to pass, and love is at the root of many of the relationships which make this society question the status quo.
This is the third book in the series and although not completely necessary I would encourage everyone to read the first two books (they are free so no excuse!). This book jumps a few years and so the characters are older, but they are just as captivating as they were before. Fans of dark paranormal romance should grab this series and sit back for an amazing read!

Hangman’s Army is slightly more slow moving than Escape and Secrets in Blood and it does seem to focus more on the tension between Hugh and Trinity instead of the brewing revolution. That being said, I did enjoy the book and would recommend it; it ties up a lot of loose ends and keeps the story flowing forwards. I cannot wait to read Betrayed, book four in the series; I am rooting for the revolutionaries and really hope that they can pull together and come out on top.

I like the storyline, the characters and challenges with the unique solutions were relatable and honest. The plot makes an immersing read.
Found guilty of treason, sentenced to death and awaiting execution, Hugh is rescued by Trinity and friends and he becomes a major supporter and leader in Trinity’s band of rebels. War with the Almightys is here and the rebels need to come together as a cohesive unit, not bickering and fighting each other, if they are to take on the Almighty’s army. I love how the story is progressing and can’t wait for where it goes from here.

I started this series with the free first or prequel – Escape. It is so good and captivating that I knew I’d have to read more. When the opportunity to read ARC of this book came up, how could I not take it, especially as poor as I am? But it would have been worth cutting out a meal or two to get more of this series. Hangman’s Army is an absolutely captivating read.
