I love reading about Ava because she's such a unique character, and this instalment is no exception. A compelling story, and now a lengthy wait until February 2015 for the next one!

While I enjoyed it, I thought it was more of a story created in order to set up future books in the series.
wc4's review against another edition
4.0
What a joy to return to a favourite series! Honestly though, I've procrastinated reading this book because I had a feeling it would represent a pivotal moment in Ava Lee's life. And, I'm not sure if I was ready for it. Well, at the risk of being spoilery, Ava's life is changing and I think the arc of the novels will also be different from now on.
For one, she's in a venture capital business with May Ling and Amanda. This time, the problem is in their investment in Borneo. Ava's skills are called into action trying to recover their own capital. It contains all the elements I love in this series. Who knew accounting and detective work would go well together? Things get pretty emotional at the end though, so fair warning.
