So I’m just going to say it: Favourite read of 2018 so far!
OMG, heart-eyes for Louisa Luna!
This was just so much fun; a pretty perfect example of what a crime thriller-whodunit should be.
I would love this to be a series featuring the enigmatic bounty hunter/P.I. Alice Vega. Fingers crossed! Not a lot was revealed about her, just enough for you to know her without knowing her. There is still a lot of space to grow with Vega, more story that can be told.
The minute she popped onto the page, I knew I was in fictional love. Vega is damaged and snarky and ruthless, smart and cynical, with a short bullshit fuse. She has no problem beating the shit out of her “skips” or using her talent of mental warfare to get her way. She’s a tough-as-nails queen.
When I grow up, I want to be just like her.
