An exciting third novel in this gripping series! Clay Wolfe’s latest case is a bit different from the usual – he’s never been charged with finding a missing mouse before! Hired by Bridget Engel, CEO of Johnson Laboratories, he finds himself investigating the world of genetics and the role mice play in furthering the alteration of genes, whilst also involved in what he knows is an ill-advised romantic liaison. What should have been a straightforward job turns into so much more and, once again, Clay’s friends and relatives join him in setting things to rights. I love this series; this third novel is not what it seems on the surface. A bit like a swan, gliding along while paddling like mad under the water, there is a lot going on which is not apparent at first glance. Wolfe’s seemingly ‘easy’ jobs have a way of turning into major investigations with twists and turns galore, and this is definitely the best one yet. With a fine cast of characters and always a sprinkling of humour here and there, I was engrossed from the very beginning until the final word. Thrilling and exciting, this one comes highly recommended and easily earns all five glowing stars.
