Six months later he finds out that he’s wrong. Once again on the run, he and Samantha escapes to Bali where they try to come to grips with Callaghan’s quandary. The pair settles on a daring plan to remove all threats to Callaghan’s existence and allow him to recover his true identity. “Ekemar packs this original, complex tale with action and intrigue from stem to stern … A thrill ride to a series packed with complex characters, motives, and themes that will delight and perhaps trouble, but not disappoint, fans of this series.” - Kirkus Reviews “This book gets four out of four stars from me. It had all the right ingredients for a great read: crime, horror, family problems, international intrigue and even romance.” - Onlinebookclub Reviews “The intricacy with which it is developed, the cohesiveness that weaves the story lines together, and the suspense that is built through the skillfully constructed flashbacks and timely changes of scene combine to form a very intelligently written manuscript in the fiction/suspense genre. ... The plot is wonderfully complex and creative without being overly complicated; it is very absorbing in the sense that good mysteries are intricate and reflect life’s complexity. The reader is constantly kept in suspense as the intrigue builds ... In fact, the plot and the story lines are quite original and inventive!” - Amazon Editorial Review
