My rating: 4 of 5 stars
My heart is still pounding from all the action during the end of the book!
Totally different than all the other Elizabeth Lowell novels I have read: lots less romance (sex) and much more action. She is so good at this type of writing style! I didn't miss the steamy parts much because there was always something happening.
Lowell masters whatever topic her novel revolves around ... in the past art heists, precious gems and now stolen yachts. Almost all the action happened on the water and it was so knowledgeable. She wrote with such knowledge that I feel as if I could survive having to sail a 40' yacht through choppy waters!
Great gym read. Loved it.
