This was a fantastic read from beginning to end. I've never had the pleasure of reading something within the espionage genre, and for an introduction I think this book has great potential. Despite the fast paced nature of the novel, I had minimal issue making sense of the surroundings and actions being conducted by the characters. Personally I would have envisioned this being challenging, but Kayvion does a wonderful job of breaking up the writing to make it suspenseful and easy to follow.
The characters were all great to encounter. I am hoping they make an appearance in the next volume as I felt that some of them deserved more time in the limelight. Mylo and Noelia especially intrigued me and I would love to have them further explored.
Our main heroine, Ross, was fun to journey with and the story opened a can of worms within her life which I did not see coming. I pride myself normally guessing the ending of mystery style novels and I can say for certainty I did not expect what I had read.
I definitely look forward to more of what Kayvion has to offer and what is in store for Ross in her series. I can see this becoming an awesome series and I really hope the momentum carries on.
