Stray Bullet was very good, engaging and exciting. I have always liked Mafia stories and crime dramas, and this one has a little bit of both.

I was pleasantly surprised with the mafia angle, and I would have liked to see that developed a little bit more. Perhaps in the next book, we will see the fallout after Jack missed his surprise target, and then did not even get a chance at his designated target! On top of that, how will the murder of Lee go unnoticed?

Jack has created problems for himself, and potentially his mafia family and new bride, and his arrogance producing the chilling letter to Harvey may add to his undoing.

I did not find any grammatical errors in the manuscript.

I don’t think there was one character I liked more than any other. I tended to dislike Jack, obviously because of his disregard for life, but also because of his arrogance and self-centeredness. It was hard to tell with Natasha; does she know about Jack and his alter ego, or just how depraved he really is? With children in the picture, how long can she look the other way?

The questions in plot and character relationships alone leave the door wide open for another book in this series.

My favourite part of the book would be anytime I was surprised by a twist. For instance, when Jack became a fully established member of the crime family, I was very excited and engaged on a deeper level. Then, seeing Jack’s letter to Harvey was a GREAT way to end the story, with chills and hints at a rivalry in chapters to come.

I would recommend this book to a friend, and yes, I hope for and would read a sequel!
