Review: Entertaining But Could Have Been Better
Rating: 3 out of 5

I read this book in one afternoon. I loved the setting of this book and that grabbed my attention right from the first few pages.The characters were well developed and the story moved on at a good pace.But there were things that didn't ring true along the way. Don't want to spoil the plot for new readers but what happens to McCoy after the panther incident doesn't seem realistic. He would not have just been walking away, with no questions to answer or reports to fill out, even in that era.I also thought it was rather poor taste to sully a deceased person's name, in this case, actor Jimmy Stewart. I have never read anything but good things about him and I thought this was a very poor choice of comparisons, even in a work of fiction.I probably won't read any more in this series based on how this book ended but it was entertaining and kept me tapping my Kindle pages on a rainy afternoon.
