The Devil's Due (Out of Time, #4)

by Monique Martin

Simon and Elizabeth's plans for their honeymoon are interrupted when they discover a list of unfinished business hidden in Simon’s grandfather’s journal. Picking up where Grandfather Sebastian left off, Simon and Elizabeth, along with Jack Wells, travel to glamorous 1933 Hollywood to save the life of movie star Alan Grant. But the Golden Age of Hollywood is more than parties and premieres. Behind the bright lights and bigger-than-life contracts, shadows lurk and no one is what they seem. It's a place where people will do anything for fame and fortune. And if Simon and Elizabeth fail, more than a man's life might be lost.

Another solid addition to the Out of Times series!

Simon and Elizabeth are off to Hollywood 1933 after finding a list of names and dates in Sebastian Cross' personal effects. This story begins with a gripping prologue that sets the tone, and was a welcome addition to the series. Martin continues to find her voice with these characters, and her research again shows with this adventure.

I enjoyed the addition of Jack into the series, but was a bit disappointed that time travel was for him a relationship tool, but much of that frustration resolved itself in the end.
