Blurb; When freelance journalist, Crystal Nguyen, heads to South Africa, she thinks she’ll be researching an article on rhino-horn smuggling for National Geographic, while searching for her missing colleague. But within a week, she’s been hunting poachers, hunted by their bosses, and then arrested in connection with a murder. And everyone is after a briefcase full of money that may hold the key to everything…
Fleeing South Africa, she goes undercover in Vietnam, trying to discover the truth before she’s exposed by the local mafia. Discovering the plot behind the money is only half the battle. Now she must convince the South African authorities to take action before it’s too late. She has a shocking story to tell, if she survives long enough to tell it…
My Review; This book is a little different from those everyday thrillers we enjoy. Nevertheless, it is action packed till the end, keeping the reader enthralled with each and every page. After reading Dying to Live by this author and enjoying it I had to give this book a go!
Fast paced, written well and brilliant! Crystal (Cry for short) is off to find her missing colleague and friend. However, what she doesn’t expect is everything she will have to face to get to the answers of what has really happened! Even though she is a strong and determined character she still gets herself caught up into situations she should have avoided.
I loved reading this story. Different from what I usually read but brilliant and enjoyable. A well deserved five stars from me. Highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed.
