The story in a few words parts I have copied from the overview.
Zeb and his team are unwinding in Rio during the carnival. Their vacation is upended when the parades are disrupted by a deadly shooting. What was a well-deserved R&R in the most welcoming city in the world turns into a deadly race for survival against the deadliest assassins in the world.
My thoughts:
Although the suspense could have pulled me through the streets of Rio with its beautiful sceneries, this story if there was one lack in depth, apart from endless action and the presence of powerful criminal gangs, Cartels and Bondes and gloom and core with endless shooting, kidnapping and wild action scenes such as leaping from branches and off roof top, we have total nonsense. After 12 thrillers of action packed Zeb Carter and his team doing extraordinary tasks I think enough is enough time to put more efforts into a plot with less action and more diversity and give us a story that won’t be forgotten the moment we reach the last page.
Yes I am harsh in my assessment but I do give the author high marks for the action scenes he knows how to pen them with aplomb and doesn’t hesitate to shock us at every pages. So to be fair I will stay on the fence with this one and hope that the next Zeb carter will be more to my taste.
Some story are meant to please and other not so much.
