My Thoughts
This was a new author for me. This is also the fifth book in
the series. I was able to follow along just fine. I loved the setting in this
book. This author does and awesome job
keeping the tension going throughout the story. I was drawn in from the very
beginning. Royce is a man who has
several abilities. Gus is his friend and knows about those “gifts”. The book
starts out with a murder. It then switches to two people trying to blend in to
a culture they are not familiar with.
Add to this mix the sheriff’s son who had been dropped into Royce’s lap
while his father searches for the person who murdered the young girl. I love a good mystery. This is a great one.
It held my attention all the way through. It left me frustrate at times. Just
about the time had the secrets figured out I learned through a twist that I had
not really figured anything out. That is the sign of a good author. Really can’t wait to read the other books in this series.
Author Bio
.
Born and raised in Dallas, TX, J. T. Bishop began writing in 2012. Inspired by a video that theorized the meaning of the end of the Mayan calendar, J. T. began the Red-Line trilogy. The video surmised that the earth was the central hub of activity for extraterrestrials thousands of years ago. J.T. didn’t know whether that was true or not, but it did spawn an idea. What if those extraterrestrials were still here? Two years and a lot of work later, the first three Red-Line books were complete, but she’s not done. The Red-Line saga develops as she continues to write new books.
