Ratings and reviews

James Blake is a man on a mission. He found his wife brutally murdered in their home and he vows to find the person responsible. She wasn't even supposed to be home .. she was in Italy. So who knew she was in London? Why was she targeted? The London police are eyeballing James as a suspect, and he flees the country, going to Italy to find a killer. This is a tangled tale of stolen art, a crime family, police corruption, and filled with lies and secrets and a truth that will set James on his heels. It's action packed and a real page turner. The mystery and suspense starts on the very first page and it's well paced throughout. The characters are finely drawn and I'm eager to see where James goes from here.
