Vendetta (Nikki Boyd Files, Bk 1)
Linda avatar reviewed on + 770 more book reviews


Nikki Boyd is an agent with the Tennessee Missing Person Task Force. A teenager has been abducted supposedly by a young boy she met on the internet. Of course, that young man does not exist. Nikki's sister disappeared 10 years ago and has never been seen since. So this case turns really personal for her.

Add to the mix, she's falling in love with her best friend's husband. It's been a year since her friend lost her life in a boating accident. So she understands fully when there is a loss in the family ..whether it's an abduction or by death.

There are some parts of the book that were outstanding. I lived in Tennessee as a child, and the author's description of the area made me a bit homesick. The characters were interesting, although it seems every time Nikki and Tyler talked to each other, it was mostly about the loss they both felt and how they had turned away from their faith.

The chase through the National Park was exciting, but the ending left me wanting something more ..or different... It just didn't satisfy me.

My thanks to NetGalley / Revell for furnishing a digital copy in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.
