I, as a reader, got the distinct sense with The Chase, how dangerous our streetsand our world has become. But how hope in Christ completely saves us from such sin.

Drug cartels, a small childs safety, and the conviction and career of one novelist ride on the line in this novel. There were several different angles to the story and the plot and suspense of each moment. Often times I felt my attention was torn in different directions and left me a bit scattered. Other moments the plot was clear and directed, each thread weaving in to connect to a larger conspiracy buried deeper within the pages of the novel.

Its not an easy ride, thus the title fits the book aptly. This hasnt been my favorite of such suspense novels. I thought several scenes were unnecessary and slowed the pace. The book does leave the room for continuing the series and I think readers are going to become more invested with Kariss and Tigo in subsequent novels. Several plot twists took me by surprise and keep me wondering what would happen next. But I did think there was a bit *too* much happening.

I also might not be the perfect audience for this book and Im sure other readers of high-octane suspense will find this book perfectly to their liking. It just wasnt completely for mine.

This review is my honest opinion. Thanks to the publishers through CFBA for my copy to review.
