I am new to this series, and read this before I knew it was the second in a series. I am sort of OCD, so I like to read them in order, but this book was fully able to stand alone without the back story from Volume 1. I thoroughly enjoyed it, I am a fan of Thriller/Suspense novels, so I will be getting Volume 1 on my Kindle too. The story is set in Istanbul Turkey, and it opens in a dramatic way that really grabs you. It lets you know you are in for a wild adventure with Michael Chase! There is so much excitement and action in this story, that it was hard for me to put it down. I made the mistake of starting it on my Kindle while in a Dr's waiting room, and when she came in, I didn't want to pause in the story, I wanted to keep reading! Once I was home, I immediately picked it back up, and I was engaged with the story until I finished it. This is definitely one to start when you have plenty of time to read. It's not that the story is hard to keep up with, it's more that it's so engaging that you don't want to be interrupted :) I never want to give too much of the story away, it's so much fun discovering it for yourself, but I will say that there is a plot twist that I did not see coming. Since I read so many books in this genre, I am usually pretty good at predicting what's coming next, but not with this one, it got me! It's definitely full of action and adventure with lots of mystery and suspense thrown in.I can't wait for the third installment, preferably more. This story didn't really "end" it was more "To be Continued"  I really enjoy long term stories with the same main characters. With each installment you get to know the characters a little better, and can sometimes predict what their reactions to certain scenarios will be, which takes the joy of going on a journey with them to an entirely new place.Disclosure: I received a complimentary PDF copy of this book in exchange for offering my honest thoughts and opinions on it.
