Review # 1 was written on 2018-11-25 00:00:00 Marc Trudel 3.75 stars- I really liked this book even though I guessed who “The Goat” was from the beginning. I’m not sure why I knew so early on because there really weren’t any clues to their identity but I did know. This book however was a lot more grisly than the first one, with some scenes of torture and even attempted rape that I had a hard time reading. It was a little too much for me so I did deduct the .25 from my star rating just because it was a little darker than I wanted. Even with that though this was a good story. The author did a great job of describing Irene’s PTSD from all of the traumatic experiences she went through and I could palpably feel her tension, fear, and anxiety. It was very well written. I LOVED the ending so much!! And I loooooove Irene and Frank to the moon and back.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-02-27 00:00:00 Derek Wilson Written in 1994, Irene Kelly is a refreshing change from 21st-century female ninja-heroes who can kick any bad guy's ass while working full-time, being a world-class mother, and never, ever sleeping. Irene manages to be intrepid, courageous, and human all at the same time. This is an edge-of-the-seat read with a little more pain than I'd like. Otherwise, the characters are intriguing and believable and the story kept me hooked. I'll definitely read another one of these.
