Hank takes his dream job as tour guide at a castle in Germany. But things quickly spiral into a nightmare as hank gets tangled up in a plot to steal some precious stones. Can he get himself out of it, alive?
I found this a quick read, some 132 pages, but quite a GOOD read. Not a great one though, but good enough to keep me fully engaged.
Hank loves history and getting the job at the castle is a dream come true. But very quickly, he finds himself in danger, from a man and a woman who claim they are stealing their birth right back. He finds himself pulled under by these people, and then dragged halfway across the world, and back again.
It takes time to get the full picture, helped by the fact that not only Hank has a say, but someone else too. I wanted a clearer picture of who that was, though, and I don't get it.
Some other things are a little fuzzy, but that might just be me.
A well written, well delivered tale, of greed and how to redeem yourself.
3 good solid stars.

My name is Rachel Clancy. Forty-six years ago, life as humanity understood it ended. Armageddon. Well, that's what we call it, anyway. What other term works as well to describe the day the Vampires and Werewolves slaughtered nearly all of humanity?
When Rachel Clancy turned sixteen, she inadvertently changed the lives of everyone around her. Now, six months later she has to figure out how to live with what has happened.
Sent back into the wilderness - this time with a new love - she will find herself face-to-face with two people she never thought to see again: the boy she thought she loved and the man who wanted to destroy her since birth. If Rachel can learn what drives her forward, there may be a chance for everyone to start again. If she fails, all is lost.
I really enjoyed the fist book but this once was just so predictable and a bit annoying! Rachel has gone from kickass to whinging about her latest boyfriend drama although Chad didn’t last long and the love was instant. I just really struggled! Buy hey I’m not one to give up just yet.
