Original plot and believable set of characters. Occasionally too heavy on the details of police/firefighters' procedures but it added to the realistic feel of the plot. I enjoyed it and would read more from the author.
Thanks to the author / Gypsy Shadowing Publishing / NetGalley who furnished a digital copy in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.

What a wild ride. Lots of action that keeps the pages flipping. Don't miss out on this exciting read.

This author shows a lot of potential for future novels. This has a good storyline with enough intrigue to keep the reader interested. While a little heavy of the police procedures it was nice to have those details of what officers actually carry, and how they collect evidence, most novels just gloss over this part. These details however don't need be repeated almost every time a search is going on.
I enjoyed this short read and look forward to watching this author improve his craft.
