Too heavy on the police literature, but since it all works out in the end, I can say I didn't mind it too much. I thought there were a lot of extra conversations that really weren't necessary, like Gena's talk with the hairstylists and other women in the beauty salon. The information could have been described by Woods and not completely spelled out for readers. The information became complex with so many characters. It read like a movie scene but this isn't a movie scene.

Gena's character was too weak in my opinion. Woods did an excellent job of describing Gena's time of mourning, but her bounce back wasn't so intriguing.

I am anxious to read Book III. This cliffhanger was too much. I want to know about Quadir and Rik.
