All The Devils by Barry Eisler
Livia Lone #3
When I met Livia Lone in The Killer Collective I knew that I had found a series I would love to follow for the foreseeable future. That book was perhaps book three in the Livia Lone series but also a book in two other series I had never heard of. When I saw this book up for review I knew I wanted to find out what Livia would be tackling next. Her focus is on sexual predators and putting them away, one way or another, and this book continues that theme.
When Livia is approached by someone that lost his daughter ten years before she wasn’t sure she wanted to help out but one favor she could do...and that favor drug her into a rather serious and deadly situation. It was definitely more deadly for the bad guys who tried to take her out than it was for Livia but deadly it was throughout the book.
There were two scum-bucket bad guys who were serial rapists that sometimes “disappeared” the women they preyed upon. One was in the public eye and the other his friend from the military. I have to say that these two men made me hope they would get their just desserts before the end of the book. They were truly warped and without compassion of any sort.
The search for who the rapists were was intense. The people called for information were high up the ladder sometimes and Livia was lucky to know them. I admired Livia’s strength, tenacity and will to do what she felt was right. I would definitely like to have her on my side if I were in trouble.
When I finished this book I was satisfied the story was told but was left eager to find out what Livia will be doing in the next book and whether or not her relationship with Carl will continue and take on more substance as time goes by.
This book flows. I was caught up in the beginning and kept engaged till the end. I could “see” what was happening and felt it was believable in all the important ways. At some point in time I need to find books one and two and read those as I have a feeling there is more about Livia’s early life that I should at some point read although I have a fairly good idea what her life was like from glimpses read in the two books read so far.
Did I like this book? Yes
Would I like to read more in this series? Without a doubt
Thank you to NetGalley and Thomas & Mercer for the ARC – This is my honest review.
