I liked this book. Some parts more than others. It was a little weird when the POV would switch and the story would jump back in time a bit so that we saw the events from the new POV. The first couple times it threw me, but I did get used to it. The story is fun and the plot very James Bond. I love the gadgets and cool things Mark got to use. Quinn is a bit more straight laced. The “romance” part of the story is hilarious. The guys fight their attraction for a very short time and when they finally get together it’s great. There’s a little drama from Mark’s job (and Mark’s snooping!). I have to read the next book in the series.

**spoiler alert** This was pretty intense. I had to put it down just before the final action & case solving because I suspected it would be brutal. Sp**spoiler alert** This was pretty intense. I had to put it down just before the final action & case solving because I suspected it would be brutal. Spoiler: It wasn't as bad as I expected. It was still a heart pounding intensity. Just not as painful as I envisioned.

I liked this one even more than the first book, Houseboat on the Nile. Both MCs are awesome. Completely different personalities, very well done. I canI liked this one even more than the first book, Houseboat on the Nile. Both MCs are awesome. Completely different personalities, very well done. I can recommend this to anyone who wishes James Bond books or movies were M/M. Yeah, it's that crazy, but it's really fun. Secondary characters are well fleshed out, too. Absolutely LOVED it!

I didn't see the clues as clues and totally fell for the red herring. I enjoyed this from start to finish!I didn't see the clues as clues and totally fell for the red herring. I enjoyed this from start to finish!...more
Another fantastic mystery! I guessed correctly at the halfway point, but that didn't affect my enjoyment. It was still suspenseful and well done. I reAnother fantastic mystery!
