Sisters Samatha and Monte Walters are vacationing in Spain enjoying a festival waiting for their brother’s arrival but their enjoyment was thwarted when terrorist’s attacks rock the city of Santiago de Compostela and the sisters are separated and one of them vanishes....the story will tell us what happens....enjoy.
This thriller is a family and political drama at its best it incorporates into its lines links to terrorism, crime and financial manipulation. Full of energy, the narrative provides all tension needed to keeps us pushing till the end. Not only are we into fast paced actions and intrigues to keep us on our toes as all good thriller should provide but “The Far Side of the Desert” goes far beyond terrorism and political and financial intrigue by giving us a inspiring tale into a family relationship, romantic matters/affairs and even psychological trauma such as rape. Along the way the Walters sisters takes us globetrotting passing time in Washington DC, Morocco, Spain and Gibraltar...and somewhere in the Sahara where we experience some tense moments and disturbing scenes. Some part of this book may be difficult to read but I loved how smoothly the author has incorporated these moments with care. The story alternates between Monte’s treatment as a captive and Samatha’s determined search for her sister.
The plot is well-written and played out by captivating characters. I hope Ms.Leedom-Ackerman plans a spin off and gives her evil character Safir his own story....I don’t believe this ghost (Safir) died by the end....
This is one of the best stories I read this year. Well-said, well-done
