Review: All the Hidden Sins

I enjoyed All the Hidden Sins, the second in the Jake Carrington thriller series, as much as I did Ms. Lanouette's first in the series (All the Deadly Lies). As usual, her attention to detail and authenticity shines through a freshly plotted story, with well-drawn characters. Jake, I loved right from the beginning as a strong, steady, do-the-right-thing kind of guy caught between mending a broken relationship and his growing fondness for the self-destructive, addicted gambler, Kyra. Jake doesn't realize Kyra is working for kinky mob boss Phil to pay off her debts and keep her son safe until all clues point to Kyra. I chewed my fingernails during the cat and mouse game between Jake and Kyra and got goose bumps every time Kyra encountered the creepy mob boss. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a page turning read with a twist.
