When this popped up as an ARC available via Net Galley, I could not have clicked the request button any faster than I did. A couple years ago I got a copy of Some Choose Darkness via the Kensington's Between the Chapters Facebook group. I enjoyed Charlie Donlea's writing style and since then I have looked forward to each of his releases!
Avery Mason, our protagonist is whip-smart and has a real can-do spirit. I like how we get to see her vulnerabilities and the way she deals with her insecurities. Twenty Years Later incorporates September 11, 2001, in a unique and surprising way. As is the case with any thriller, I am hesitant to be anything but vague about the plot as there are clues everywhere!
In this book, as I was reading I developed a crazy theory, and then shortly after I developed my crazy theory, Avery had a crazy theory. Yes, indeed, Avery and I were on the same page. I find in Charlie Donlea's writings he often writes so that the reader can be one step ahead of the protagonist and the action unfolds. I love it! I feel like I am part of the action and that is a big part of why I enjoy his books each and every time.
4 Stars to Twenty Years Later!
