"Possession Point", by Glenn Burwell



Detective Robert Lui book #5

I find this story to have an interesting plot, engaging characters and particularly appealing to me being a Canadian is the setting: the beautiful city of Vancouver and its Okanogan Valley. Robert Lui is the main player, now a private detective/researcher with a flair for finding trouble and solutions is there to entertain us all through the mystery. Robert has recently made a career and a personal change and has his doubts that he made a good move…..

The story in a few words:

When a string of construction accidents plague Vancouver where deaths have occurred, Robert hired to find out what is the cause and who is really behind the tragedies, heads out to Surrey to find out why young men who have recently immigrated from Hong Kong have become victims and what was behind the insurance co. aggressiveness.

Further thoughts:

I love this story even if I missed the previous saga and all its recurring characters in no way, did I feel lost. The author did a fine job situating us and introducing his players, I would say in whole smooth sailing. It is also vividly said to kept us engaged from start to finish.

Well done

I received this book from the first reviewer program for my thoughts: this is the way I see it.
