    Wow....this book had me hooked from page one. I just love Alisons writing style and the way she gets you involved and engrossed into the story is brilliant. Her stories always remind me of Chris Carter’s Robert Hunter series and she’s definitely got some surprises up her sleeve!!!

    I had no idea who the guy would turn out to be and was completely wrong with my suspicions. Alison has written a well balanced and well researched story here and I’ll be recommending to everyone who reads these sort of books.
