It is a riveting read, and I was especially fond of the protagonist, Darcy.

Well written, fast-paced thriller!

A collaborative effort of this sort ought to have fetched a higher rating. What kept it a rung short, was the bland characterization. And what pushed it to the near-top were the plot and style of narration. A Recommended Read
An excellent read! A fast-paced thrill-ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat!
