4.5 out of 5 stars! The plot is getting thicker and more muddled. Sadly my political knowledge isn't that great. I'm one of those that tends to skim the news and I read for pleasure, mostly romance. These last three books in the Thompson sisters series wouldn't technically be considered romance and yet, there is definite romance involved. The more than a quick look, a sigh and a jump in the sack type romance. These relationships are built on trust, respect and commitment (or lack there of). This book is full of action and political intrigue and in the hands of a less capable author, I would have given up. More characters are introduced and it could have become a confusing mess. However, this author is a skilled storyteller and the pacing of the book is just right. I was able to keep the characters straight in my mind, even as more are added. I will be diving into the final book to see where it goes. We start immediately where Girl of Lies finishes, with Carrie's baby sister coming home to see if her bloody group is a match for little Rachel.When immediately we spend some time with Andrea, the youngest of the Thompson girls, who has been hidden away for most of her life, living with family in Spain.We learn why, as we go through the book, we get to find out why Mom and Dad are cold and distant.##Loved how we get a bit more of Dylan in this and hoping to see more of him in 'Vengance'Carrie still amazes me, such a very strong, solid, independent lady with a fierce protective streak in her. She has been like that with her sisters and now with her DaughterAlexander and Sara, both don't have very big parts in this part, that's not to say that they are not insignificant, the dialogue between Dylan and Alexander is very touching.I had not warmed to Adelina, with her children throughout the three girls books. BUT she redeemed herself with how she dealt with Jessica, even telling her some of her past secrets.I do believe that Richard is going to get what's coming to him, he certainly don't deserve to get a happy and carefree future.Again, I hadn't appreciated how strong and independent Julia was, although things went totally against her and Crank, and I feel there's a lot of wrongs to be righted! She has such a good business head on her! I dont believe she will accept being accused of being in with her dad's deals! Even though ther is a large political back story in this book, its all about the Love, Strength and togetherness they endure as a family, which I thinl began in Carrie and Ray's book, but having said that I dont believe that Richard will ever find peace, he is not a man of integrity, compassion or capable of love. It does make you wonder what happened to him in his childhood to have created such a monster!
