Not read a book by this author before.Very well written.A most intriguing storyline well worth reading.Kept me guessing right to the end.Would recommend this book to anyone who likes mystery novel.Look forward to reading more by the author.
While Echoes is written from Fiona's point of view, Fractures is written from Miles. I didn't know this book was the second in the series when I requested the ARC so I had to read Echoes before delving into this one. The jump in narration was confusing since I kept thinking it was Fiona instead of Miles, but then again that is on me since I jumped from Echoes straight into Fractures.
Fractures takes place where Echoes left off. Fiona and Miles think they are going back to the US where they will live in California with different names while under the protection of an FBI agent. Their joy derails when they end up in Poland and back into the hands of Briola Biotech. Like Fractures, the chapters alternate between the Briola villa in Poland and a stranded freighter in the middle of an ocean.
I didn't like Fiona and Miles as much in Fractures. Fiona especially since her character suddenly developed a different personality. In Fractures, Fiona was angry, cruel, and cold. She resorted to fighting, constant cursing, and being manipulative to Miles. This was a huge 180 from her character in Echoes. Miles wouldn't stand up for himself either when Fiona used him as her punching bag.
Another thing I didn't like was the instant love which falls back to Echoes. After nine days stranded on an island, Miles and Fiona switch from mortal enemies to lovers. It was ridiculous. Their soul mate mindset continued in Fractures of course, except when Fiona was berating Miles.
The pros are this book picking up where the first one ended, the eventual answering of questions, and the Polish setting.
Thank you NetGalley for an ARC.
