Great read! It kept me on the edge of my seat start to finish. I would definitely recommend! I liked the location being in Cuba, learning a bit about those who left vs those who stayed.

This book!!! Keeps you entertained the entire time, “Bleach, Burned cell phone, Half-burned T-shirt, Ripped up flooring, Someone could be trying to cover up a murder”! Hooked right here! This book is amazing, it’s one of those “just one more chapter kind of books”, that entangles you in the story, and you just can’t stop at the end of the chapter! Phenomenal book, I cannot wait to read more books from this author.

As a crime reporter for a Tampa TV news station, Mari Alvarez knows when an investigation enters dangerous territory. But with her estranged sister missing and almost no information to go on, Mari can’t trust anyone but herself to find the truth. Now she has just 48 hours to sneak into Cuba undetected, track down her sister…and pray to her orisha that she’s not too late! Wow!!! Fantastic read!! A bit psycho but great read!! I don’t know how an author can think of some of these scenarios lol but well done!! This book has me gripped page by page!! What a thriller! It had great suspense, intriguing, action packed, murder, mystery, revenge, a sort of who done it that was a bit crazy and some awesome twist and turns! I highly recommend reading this one! Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!!

Oh wow, so I had no clue this was book 2 in the Mari Alvarez series. This book took me on a terrifying ride. Mari Alvarez is a TV Reporter in search of her missing sister, Izzy. Mari is very smart, intuitive, superstitious, caring, anxious, and a bit of a control freak. On this wild ride to find her sister, she has enlisted the help of her friends; Tony Garcia and Orlando Jones. Tony is a Tampa Homicide Detective and friend; Orlando is a TV News Photographer and best friend. They are basically keeping her focused and calm while searching for her sister. During their search they come across some information that turns everything upside down. There are so many things happening beyond their knowledge and control. I found myself stressed, anxious, petrified and very invested in the outcome. There were some pretty big twists I didn't see coming. All in all this book was as suspenseful as watching a scary movie in the dark. I wanted to scream at the characters for some of their choices, but then again, what lengths would you go to for someone you love? I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little bit scared to read books 1 and 3 (I'm not usually a thriller reader), but I've got to know what happens next. Thoroughly enjoyed being scared witless.
