Thank you to Minotaur Books and the author for the ARC. All opinions in this review are my own.

Under Pressure is not a book I would have picked out for myself, but it was an entertaining thriller. Because of the short chapters and the suspense, I flew through the book. I haven’t read the first book in the Lucas Page series, but I don’t think it was necessary to read the second book. There is enough of an introduction to Lucas and the important events in his past that I didn’t feel like I missed something. I like that the intensity of the book slowly built until the end. I devoured the last fifty pages.

I recommend this book if you like high-stakes thrillers with a brilliant main character who would do things their own way rather than following FBI protocols.
