No Time To Spare was an awesome book! I love detective or FBI books anyway. Reading this was a treat for me! I had not read the first installment No Margin for Error and it was really easy to pick this one up and know kind of what happened previously.First of all I loved all the characters on this book. They were 3 dimensional even if they were secondary characters. I learned enough background on everyone to know where they fit in the story and where they were going in the story.Ariel Bauer is a strong, smart, and vibrant 20 something hair stylist. She had a very bad abuse experience as a child until Poppi rescued her and worked with her to rehabilitate her and help her overcome her fears (being in dark and confined spaces). He raised her as his own daughter and has loved and cherished her. She is an expert computer programmer and an ex con.Sam Macateer is the  tough FBI agent responsible for Ariel being sentenced harshly in the last installment. In this next installment I felt that he had some remorse for all that Ariel had to endure in prison. He plays chess regularly with Poppi every Saturday. He has full confidence in her computer skills so he wants to hire Ariel to help decrypt some "nature" photos suspected to be a cover for child pornography.The five german orphans living in Romania forced to do unspeakable things really just broke my heart. The eldest sister was very mature for her age because she had to protect the younger siblings....as much as she could!This was an excellent mystery with a seriously dark side. I was super glad the author only visited the childrens story briefly to help move the story along. It was very disturbing to read those words but a harsh reality.I highly recommend this book to any fan of mystery.***DISCLOSURE***I received a copy of this book for free in exchange for an honest review.
