My opinion: I really liked that story and I already started to read the second book in the serie which has currently four books. At first, I didn't know what to expect and I must admit that the beginning was a little slow to me but finally I enjoyed the story. This is a not a big thriller with a lot of action but still it's well written and easy to read. I bought the audio book that goes along and really enjoyed it. Too sad that the audio book of the second book in the serie is not ready yet. Still I don't think I will wait, I'll start the book.
