Review
I love Novellas. These ones were perfect.
In Secrets of St Augustine we meet a young girl who needs serious help. Who better to help than Doug Valdez who stumbles across the situation? We meet Doug in other Abramson books, but this definitely puts him in his best light. It's a race that kept my heart rate up and turning every page. It's a good thing that this one wasn't a longer story, I am not sure I could have stood the suspense, it was that good!
The second offering is Hounded, where we run into the world of gangs, private eyes, crooked cops, and no nonsense attorneys. Who knew how much of that could be found in Boise, Idaho. This was a fascinating story set in places vaguely familiar to me. The characters were strong, well developed, and relatable. The suspense was on point.
In Plain Sight follows an FBI agent and a teacher with multiple jobs in an undercover operation to find a mole. This is thrilling well-developed story that is somehow as rich and fulfilling as a novel in it's shortened format. I love the characters especially the heroine's mother. She's a firecracker.
Overall this collection is worth the read and would be perfect when you want to read something in the evening and not stay up all night, but only if you can read one story at a time. Never mind.... Make sure you have time.
I received an early copy from the publisher through NetGalley and this is my honest review.
