Black Wolf is the second book in the Red Queen series, translated from Spanish. I read both books back to back and it was a thrill ride and a half! I do love a good action adventure and these 2 books will have you holding your breath in anticipation.

In Black Wolf we are reunited with Antonia and Jon who are sent to the Costa Del Sol to find the missing and pregnant wife of a murdered Spanish mafia member. They are not the only ones looking for her so the stakes are high and the conditions are dangerous.

This book has it all, there are gunfights, scary dogs, car chases and a very high body count. This book is dark and very graphic. It is messy and violent and I loved it.

The relationship between Antonia and Jon is a highlight of this book. They are still getting to know each other, but feel more comfortable together.

The narrator, Scott Brick was just fantastic. He really brought the story to life and made it very exciting to listen to.

Thanks to Macmillan Audio for the advanced listening copy. Released on March 12th.

A taut novel that will leave readers on the edge of their seats. The narrator was perfect at adding tension, suspense, and humor when called for. The story was unique and interesting and kept me enthralled. I loved Antonia and learning about her gift, and the locations were lush and intriguing.

Black Wolf is the second book in the Red Queen series by @juangomezjurad. Antonia and Jon are back this time trying to find the missing pregnant wife of a murdered Spanish mafia member. There is an assassin, aka the Black Wolf, who is also looking for this mafia wife. Who will find her first?!

I love the character of Antonia Scott and was so glad to read another book with her in it. I really enjoyed switching between the book and audiobook with this read since I did not want to put this crime thriller down. I’m looking forward to the next book in this series. I recommend this series and reading it in order.

Thank you @macmillan.audio and @minotaur_books for allowing me to read and listen to this book ahead of publication in exchange for my honest review.
