4.5 starts. This was a thoroughly enjoyable read! I am usually a little stressed when animals are included in books like this, but I was glad to read Rollins has a background as a vet - and I'm glad to say he didn't disappoint me.

The story was fascinating, it was multi-faceted, and just believable enough to be grounded. I liked the characters and the international as well as "cold" angle. Ultimately, I wanted a little more from the epilogue but it was just barely enough to be satisfying.

I recommend this book to all fans of strong stories. As thrillers go, this is good entry in the genre!
