Meet Kelsey Porter: a beautiful, strong, and intelligent young woman but alas, troubled. Stemming from a horrific childhood event, Kelsey has dreams and visions of what she believes is a pseudo world; one which she created to help her cope with trauma. It all seems so tangible to her and exploring this "world" is a fascinating backdrop throughout the narrative.On the surface we have a mission, and that mission would be to avenge the death of her parents. Along with her foster brother and an elite team, she embarks on this quest to recover ancient Buddhist artifacts and settle the score with those who have so grievously wronged her. In the course of completing this undertaking much and more is revealed about her past than she would ever have bargained for.This book was entirely entertaining and well-constructed. Ample action, a good selection of interesting characters, and a little mysticism/fantasy thrown in for good measure. I was particularly enthralled with the conclusion as I did not see a few things coming, which is always a treat! Excellent, all around.
