Review: Suspense sealed with a kiss
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 11 30, 2013
The mystery of this city continues to unravel in this book, and so do secrets and fears from Susan's past. The story, the second one in the trilogy, picks up soon after the end of the first one, thus creating a timeline for the adventures of our protagonist, Jack.And wow, what a brilliant, action-filled opening, with bullets flying all around Jack's head, as he watches Sheriff Reeves slumped over the wagon, and Susan as she tries to fight off John Smith's men all by herself. Boy! are you in for some action here, and for an entertaining ride.Suspense oozes out of Jon Millers pen, he has a natural yet cinematic way of telling a story, with great dialogue as well as descriptions of the backdrop. Setting up the love relationship between Jack and Susan allows him, in the end, to seal the suspense with a kiss.Five stars.
