Run Time: 6 hrs and 13 mins
Genre: Thriller, vigilante
Summary:
The Sydney Rye series probably should be read in order. This is book 7. It can be read as a standalone. I basically did, since I’d read book 6 about 5 years ago. They’re good mindless thrillers.
Sydney travels to China with her faithful companion, Blue, to find Merrel who went to see a lady friend.
Additional Comments:
- Sydney and crew, including Blue, are vigilantes. They take out the bad guys in the name of justice. They’re not as fun as the Leverage crew, but they have a similar agenda. Be bad guys to be good guys.
- It’s a standard thriller. First half is all setup, but eventually, we get to the action.
- The title actually has to do with the story! You have no idea what a rarity that is these days.
- Governments being shady, not that far-fetched.
- Sydney’s drama with Dan is kind of disappointing, but that’s a very small part of the story.
- Merrell doesn’t get much page time.
- New guy is an interesting addition.
- Tech guy was just kind of there for the ride.
- The random murder wasn’t really solved, that’s disappointing but probably lends to credibility.
- There’s little sense of closure because there are distinct threads that lead to the next book. That’s a cheap tactic to try to get you to buy the next book. That’s why I like omnibus titles. Would the mystery with Deklan make me buy something else, well no but I’m sure it works for some people.
- Content Warnings: Some violence. There are a few hard curses.
Conclusion:
Sydney Rye’s not exactly an angel, but she’s got some definite ideas on right and wrong and heaven help you if you’re on the wrong side of that.
