Review: Another Harrowing Adventure
Rating: 5 out of 5

Ethan Justice - Incendiary by Simon Jenner does not let up on the harrowing adventures that Ethan and Savannah became involved with in the first two books of the series. Instead, it seems to escalate. Now they are in Europe battling Mafia type figures and perversely evil criminals. This time Mr. Jenner has tangled up Ethan’s family in this thriller by having his sister, Rachel, be right in the middle of it. In this series the story always starts with the villain. I like this is that I can gauge just how bad a beating my nerves are going to take before Ethan manages to save the day. This one is nail biting. Partly because I always identify with Savannah and again she ends up in some tight spots. As always it’s never predictable, except I always expect Ethan to come through though not in the normal just-shoot-the-bad-guy.It seems to me Ethan is becoming more James Bond-ish; except remember, it’s James Bond without all the training. I’m now seeing a young Gary Grant and Grace Kelly channeling through Ethan and Savannah. Wish they could make the movie especially since this has hit written all over it – full of action, suspense, dark humor, and heroes that are complex, a little flawed, but endearing.
