I couldn’t put this book down. Right from the beginning, it had me hooked. It had everything in it and then some!!! It is definitely a page turner!!!

I liked Jake Wolfe’s character. When I started reading the book, he was portrayed as a mild-mannered photojournalist. Then the author started adding layers to him and what he added was fantastic. Jake’s character went from ho-hum to an action star over the whole book. Plus, he got the girls. He got more action in one night than a normal action hero.

The one aspect that I liked was that he was a military dog handler in the most recent war. The author did a great job not only portraying a military dog but the handler. I had never heard of the Alpha Roll until I read this book (click on the link or google it. From what I have brought up, it is controversial).

I like that the author did his best to humanize The Artist. He is bipolar (no giveaways here, it is mentioned the first time we meet him) and not on medication. He does have a moral compass. It is skewed though. But then again, aren’t all peoples’ moral compasses skewed to some extent?
