Not too gritty or gruesome but not cutesy or cloying. This is a perfectly done plot – in unfolds one piece at a time, layers upon layers of “what?”, “OMG!”, and “No!” Revealing a little at a time makes the reader wonder (and KEEP wondering) while bringing to light what I call a “travel mystery” – a foreign location, bad dudes around, sketchy happenings, all with a setting to die for. Ariel is a likeable protagonist – sharp, smart, and smooth despite being a “country girl.” But oooh there are secrets there… 💡𝐓𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬: Ooooh Lisbon! Sign me up for this trip (minus the kidnapping!), but what a backdrop for this well-fashioned, tautly-told tale that reads like an action movie with a twist of mystery. But it’s a past fraught with trauma and mystery and Ariel is flung back into the spotlight.
To get him back, Ariel has to delve into her past to cover the ransom.
