He filled up, before going in to pay with his Visa card. Soon, he noticed that his bimbo manager had left the car with almost no fuel, so he pulled into the first petrol station that he saw. But, instead of one or two marked police cars rushing to detain someone who had reported a murder, he was treated to the worrying spectacle of three black Range Rovers, with blacked-out windows, arriving at speed and whizzing up the ramp into the car-park. So begins a race for survival, joined by a variety of other characters, moving from one set piece to the next, as the world that everyone knows is about to change forever.
His only thought is to secure the safety of girlfriend, Lily, and reach his journalist cousin, Anthony.īodie has stumbled into a diabolical plot from the world's governments to end terrorism, famine and global warming in one swift swoop. In Liverpool, England, 18-year-old student and Freerunner, Bodie, survives an assassination attempt and flees for his life. Despite the many faces, this was a fairly easy story to follow along with. So reading the other previous books in this series would be helpful. But the rest of the secondary characters are sort of just tossed in. We are introduced to the more important players, which makes it easier. There are a lot of characters in this book, so that is a lot of names to keep straight. Jealousy replaces comfort and our heroine starts to see her BFF in a new light. But we also get to watch it bloom into something more. Our couple have a tight bond, which we can see from the beginning. I always tend to enjoy a friends-to-lovers type of story and this one was done well. I was thoroughly entertained from start to finish.
However, once it does come into play, boy does it make a splash. The blurb mentions the love potion and I was a little disappointed to see it only made an appearance toward the end of the story. There are a lot of colorful characters, our main couple are incredibly likable, and there is a good deal of humor here also.
