Kendra's Comments: Many years after the disappearance of her sweet little girl Bonnie, Eve Duncan is still struggling with the debilitating grief of losing her daughter. She has tried to moveon and is a successful forensic sculptor living in Georgia with her devoted husband Joe Quin. As a rule she does not work for criminals and explains this to a gun dealer living in Columbia who is very interested in hiring Eve for a particular job. After Eve turns down all his offers, he finally makes the one offer she could never refuse and she finds herself in the middle of a jungle in Maltavo’s compound. This suspenseful story will keep you turning the pages to see if Eve and those she loves can make it out of the jungle alive, and still together. I liked this easy-to-read story, but I warn you: there is strong language in this one. It explores the issues of grief, love, lust and fear. The plot twists completely surprised me in the end. I wish it had kept going just a little longer because some things were left hanging, but that is generally what you get when a book deals with human emotions and the issue of love!
