PI Alice Vega is nothing less than an utterly compelling protagonist ... A somewhat Shakespearean ending satisfies with triumphant women standing strong on a stage littered with battered villains.
Luna delivers nearly 200 pages of by-the-numbers mystery before launching headlong into an intricately plotted, adrenaline-fueled conspiracy thriller. The stakes escalate as the odds against Cap and Vega mount, ratcheting up tension and intensifying drive while developing the characters. In contrast with her debut, Luna this time develops the burgeoning attraction between empathetic Cap and Jack Reacher–esque Vega, resulting in a series duo with legs ... Luna’s latest entertains while subverting gender stereotypes and confronting the politics of immigration.
... gripping ... Though the fast and furious action sometimes stretches credulity, in marked contrast to the gritty realism of the rest of the novel, this dynamic duo rates a long run.
