Labyrinth of Lies is another page-turner from Irene Hannon.
Book Blurb
When the daughter of a high-profile businessman disappears from an exclusive girls’ boarding school, police detective Cate Reilly is tapped for an undercover assignment. It doesn’t take her long to realize that beneath the veneer of polish and wealth, things are not as they seem at Ivy Hill Academy. But the biggest surprise of all? The only man she ever loved is also working at the school.
Zeke Sloan has never forgotten Cate, but now isn’t the best time for their paths to cross again. When their two seemingly disparate agendas begin to intertwine–and startling connections emerge among the players–the danger escalates significantly. But who is the mastermind behind the elaborate ruse? And how far will they go to protect their house of cards?
Queen of romantic suspense Irene Hannon invites you to scale the heights of human folly and plumb the depths of the human heart in this second gripping book in the Triple Threat series.
My Thoughts
What. A. Doozy. In a good way, of course.
Hannon really knows how to pack on the suspense. From the moment Cate steps into the boarding school, I was second-guessing everyone she met.
And just when I thought I had it figured out, Hannon threw me a curveball I didn’t see coming.
As for the romance, Hannon did a great job showing the chemistry between the two. I was a little curious how she would handle the fact that Cate was undercover as a student while Zeke was undercover as a teacher. But Irene Hannon handled this well. As usual, her romantic leads show maturity and respect for one another within the course of the story. I loved how she explored the mistakes of their past without harping on it as well as exploring the forgiveness and healing they needed.
Overall, Labyrinth of Lies is a gripping story romantic suspense fans will love.
