As with the  other books in the Redemption Series, the worlds of international espionage and entertainment collide. In her third book (In The Name of Glori), Maeve Christopher throws the fashion and beauty industries into the mix. This novel tells the story of Glori Coulston, portrayed in previous books as a shallow, self-centered, individual. Although she is a witty, endearing  character, she can, admittedly, be a trifle irritating at times. In this book Glori morphs into a savvy business woman.  Whilst enjoying her new status as a beauty and fashion icon, she makes a conscious effort to help her friends and to make the world a better place. Although her brand achieves meteoric success, Glori encounters a number of personal challenges. These include  ongoing problems in her relationship with her secret agent boyfriend, falling victim to the efforts of a blackmailer,  being slipped a mind-altering drug  and enduring a kidnapping and near death experience.  This book entices the reader to become so deeply involved in the story that he finds himself sharing the pain and celebrating the success of Glori and the secret agents into whose dangerous world she has been catapulted. Like the other books in the series, "In The Name of Glori" is very dramatic, exciting and highly entertaining.  Kudos, Maeve Christopher, you have consistently produced  outstanding work and this book has exceeded expectations. Excellent work as usual.
