Now THAT Is How You Do A Fucking Prologue! Seriously, I don't normally tweet out or contact the author when I'm reading a book. After *this* prologue, I immediately had to tweet out how awesome it is, particularly given the various discussions in Boolandia regarding how many readers skip prologues or don't enjoy them or whatever. I don't mind books that don't have them, but a well written one can really get a reader curious and/ or excited about the story, and this is one of the best written ones I've ever encountered.
Beyond the prologue, this is a tremendous tale, one that has been set in motion since the very beginning of this series - everything is now coming to a head, and Bennett and her team are about to be challenged like they've never been challenged before... and by the one person who terrifies Bennett more than any other.
Filled with pulse pounding action and intrigue, this is one of those mystery/ police procedural tales that really shows the true power of how great these particular types of stories can be - and yet, still, to get the full impact here, you really do need to begin at Book 1 and read through this point. Trust me, when you do you will absolutely devour this particular tale as well.
Overall a remarkably strong tale that could well serve as a series finale - or, equally, could simply serve as a trilogy conclusion and allow the series to continue on. I for one am very curious to see which direction Roberts (and possibly her publisher) will go there. Very much recommended.
