This is a truly fabulous story. Full of great characters, and a plot that I really enjoyed. Otho Eskin has produced a wonderful piece of writing with this tense and entertaining Thriller. For me it’s the characters that make a great story, and Marko Zorn is brilliant. I like that he doesn’t care who he upsets in his need to find the killer. I’m glad I picked this up to have a read, I loved it.
Marko Zorn is a detective for the Washington DC Metropolitan Police and his current investigation is not only giving him a headache but has become extremely dangerous as well. The victim Sandra Wilcox who was discovered in the Reflecting Pool at the National Mall was no ordinary citizen, she was a Secret Service Agent that worked at the White House. Marko wants to find out who killed Sandra, but the Secret Service and other Government officials are hell bent on keeping him away. Marko also has to deal with keeping Sister Grace happy and keeping himself from getting killed by gang members trying to take control of the streets. This is without a doubt a great story, and is well worth a read. Hopefully we will see more from the Author in the future. 5/5 Star Rating.

The Reflecting Pool is a fun read. Marko, a D.C. police detective, must fight a variety of other government law enforcement types to solve the murder of a young agent at the White House who ends up dying in the Reflecting Pool. There are plenty of people who try to stop Marko from investigating- even the President of the United States, The big question is why. Surely she didn't want the huge shipment of guns coming into town. The author has many subplots, too many in my opinion. I wouldn't have been surprised to see Jackie Kennedy show up at any point. But author Otho Eskin is keeping track of the plots and he does find a way to resolve them. Many might think his way was a bit much, including me. But, generally it's an enjoyable read.
Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC.
