The interplay between Emily and Javier, the protagonists, doesn’t quite reach Parker’s Hawk and Spencer’s devastating dialogue but is still good. They make a good team, and this book deals with current troubles in our cities. Most major cities are facing the homeless population problem. The plot here is the despicable solution that a group of corrupt politicians and businesspeople implement.
One of the timely subplots is Emily’s facing her mother’s cognitive decline. This is a sad situation that is plaguing many, many folks. L’Etoile does a great job bringing in current issues while maintaining forward momentum on the plot.
A homeless mother and her daughter figure prominently in the investigation. That aspect of homelessness is truly depressing.
This is a well-executed book with an excellent plot, I recommend it.
This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations. As an Amazon Associate,
