Oh my!!! My stalkee has a new book! AND it’s totally cool, AND it has a little twist that I am seriously surprised about that I will tell you about in a moment. So, this is about some pretty bad people, The Collectors, who are cruel, and will stop at nothing to get what they want, and are playing a game!So the game of those collectors are these men are basically treasure hunting, with high stakes, which are also deadly, mainly for innocent people. And the non-collects, the normal people, get swept up in this crazy race because they have something the collectors want. More specific, Shane and Gillian. A little jewel caused a lot of grief for them. Gillian is a regular collect, and the Collectors (big C means bad guys LOL), is looking for a Templar Cross that her ancestors had. But The Collectors have decided to use her, and her family, to get it for themselves, with however means necessary. It gets really complicated, like diving in the damn almost artic sea to get it, and in only x amount of days. Shane is that help, who is also being harrassed by the Collectors. And now, if he won’t help Gillian, he lose the things and the people he loves most.I don’t know if I am more intrigued by the good characters or the bad characters. And here’s the twist I was telling you I loved. The series is actually named after the bad guys. The Collectors are the not nice, hero type people here, and they got the series named after them. It’s so unusual, BUT I LOVE IT! No one does that, so it’s one of the coolest things! And back to the characters. LOL Look, Gillian is smart, and resourceful, and she won’t let her family get hurt, so loyal, and drawn into a terrible thing. Shane is a little bit of a loser in the beginning but he’s turned into to quite a good boy that I love.This one is definitely full of action. It’s almost a little Indiana Jones, with some crazy ass, deadly bad guys FORCING you to find that damn treasure. :) So, then that’s the suspense. There’s a good bit of those two elements. And there’s a little romance. And mystery, because you just never know who the face behind all this nonsense pulling the strings is. And they introduce a whole heap of characters along the way as help, which was just cool. It was a fascinating tale. AND of course my stalkee wrote it, so it’s amazingly written! :) This is new for me, I normally have to have something of fantasy in there, but hey, if somebody threatened my dogs, I’d find any damn rock! :) A WELL DONE 5 PAWS! And now I’m going to try to stop humming the Indiana Jones theme in my head!
