Using the backdrop of scientific discovery, there is excitement and wonder, but it is the characters that captivate my attention. The relationships, the balancing act of career and family life or a student studying or having fun with friends, the differences of the balancing act for men and women, the competitiveness that can lead to jealousy, the decision of justifying revenge, and the fear of an uncomfortable conversation. As Jemma begins to react to the havoc others are creating, the suspicion becomes a gripping mystery that causes wonder how the reveal within the investigation is even possible to discover the truth.
I enjoyed Book 2 even more than Book 1, "A Dangerous Fossil." The books can be enjoyed as stand-alone mysteries. Still, I would encourage readers to read this series to fully appreciate the dynamics of the relationships and the motivations of their choices.
I look forward to continuing to read this series to enjoy more of the author's writing!… (altro)
