Ania and Jerome are hot on the trail of the Leopard. The Leopard is baiting Ania to try and stop him before it is too late. For the Leopard and Ania it is personal. Yet, will the Leopard escape again. Now that Ania and Jerome are together, they are stronger together.

I still struggle to form that strong emotional connection with Ania and Jerome. Yet, I do think they make a good team and I like to see them together. The presence of the Leopard being stronger in this story was great. It was fun to see the cat and mouse game between everyone.

These books do have a bit of a James Bond vibe. I am transported back in time and can see the whole story play out in my head while I am reading. Very quick read. While I may not have loved this book, I do want to see how it all ends in the third book. ( )

This is the second novella in the To Catch a Leopard Series. This story is set in Venice. Jerome and Ania are trying to trap the famous burglar, The Leopard. However, the tale twists and Jerome is accused of a crime.

I did not enjoy this one as well as I did the first in this series. I believe it is because I found Ania to be a bit overbearing and spoiled. But, she and Jerome have a unique connection which adds so much to this story.

I also loved the Venice setting. The authors did a great job making it real for the reader. With the bad smells and the crumbling areas of the town, I felt like I was right there!

I received this novel from the publisher for a honest opinion. ( )
