Quick quotes

    This was another good book in the series, but in my opinion, it didn't have quite the same thrill as the previous books.

    The ending of the story on the French Riviera is just as exciting with a twisted plot and a scenario that could be happening even now as we read.

    The story is gripping and well-paced, with a compelling storyline and action-packed plot.
