My personal Rating-
While
very different from past Lisa Harris suspense books—the ones that deal with
drug trafficking and like her prior release, cybersecurity—this one dealt with
bioweapons and it was very interesting. I’ll admit that some of the science
parts lost me, but it wasn’t often, so kudos to the author for making it pretty
simple and easy to understand.
Personally,
it wasn’t as exciting to me as “A Secret to Die For”, the author’s prior book, but I did love Caitlyn’s last name (😉) and that it was set in Texas.
This novel starts hard and deals with some real-life unpleasantness, but it was
very interesting. I don’t think the plot was my favorite by Lisa Harris
(including all the mentions of affairs/a mistress), but I’m curious to learn
more about her next book.
See y’all
on Friday with a new review!
