Readers, prepare yourselves for Janotta's imaginative mind to whisk you away for a few hours as you read THE GIRL WHO PUT OUT THE FIRE. His book is thrilling, dangerous, adventurous, suspenseful and a love story is mixed into this glorious stew just for good measure. It's quite obvious that the author takes his time to think out each scene before he taps away at the keyboard because as we flip each page, it's almost as if a new setting is being introduced. His admiration of travel ties into the book as well as he captures the exact essence of Austria, Prague and the East Coast of the U.S with his highly detailed descriptions. We get familiarized with the main characters immediately which gives us a thorough background on them before we embark on this literary journey of intrigue. Our heroine, freelance journalist, Kari is extremely likable and an authoritative figure who assists in the success of this phenomenal read. It seems like too much information to digest all at once and right away, but trust in Janotta. He effortlessly weaves this tale that also spotlights betrayal and greed and will keep book lovers captivated long after the final chapter.
