***Short & Sweet Reviews are
short, quick reviews. These will mainly be used for series books where I
have already done full reviews on some of the earlier books or for
books that I feel will suffice with a quick review. These will not be
used for review requests or blog tours.
My thoughts: I loved that this latest installment in the Private series brings us back to London and not only has Jack Morgan present, as he is in some way, shape or form in every Private book, but he is a main character in this book. That isn’t always the case, especially in the books that are set outside of the US, so I was excited to see him have a main role in this one. I also liked that we got more insight into Jack’s character…I feel that while he has been a big part of this series, we haven’t really had time to dig into him too often.
As is typical, there are two cases that the team is working on. It would appear they are not connected, but as is usually the case with these books, eventually Jack and Peter Knight, the head of Private London realize their is more to each of their cases then they realize.
I enjoyed this book and I really hope it’s not the last book in this series. There doesn’t seem to be a new one on the horizon, which is strange.
