"In Doubt", by John W. Mefford
Ivy Nash Thriller book #3
Redemption Thriller #9
Although “In Doubt” can be read on its own, you really should read the previous books in this series in order to better understand why the characters are the way they are.
Following the events of the previous book Ivy is paranoid, jumpy and has no desire to take on new cases until Christina (recurring character) gets her the perfect job…..Ivy is asked to protect an adorable little girl from a wealthy egomaniac hell-bent on revenge.
Mr. Mefford has a way of drawing his readers into the story and making you feel like you are a part of it. He writes seamlessly jumping between characters without hesitation. The drama is told with confidence and is very descriptive. It is just like watching a movie. The characters display a wide range of behaviour from good to bad, from manipulative to abusive and they have to deals with all sorts of situations. This plot is on the dark side, complex and has multiple threads that slowly builds tension till we reach the thrilling climax. If you need a break and enjoy being entertained without the need of a dictionary Mr. Mefford provides clear and concise phrases in all his mysteries. The story moves at a steady pace and at times gives you the shivers but it is not as thrilling as in the Alex Trout series.
“In Doubt” is good but it is not my preferred in this series having said this I still was a pleasure to read. Next book to read “Break In” book #4
