Book Description:
Detroit 2030. Double-crossed by the person she loved and betrayed by the covert government organization that trained her to use her body as a weapon, Peri Reed is a renegade on the run.
Don’t forgive and never forget has always been Peri’s creed. But her day job makes it difficult: she is a drafter, possessed of a rare, invaluable skill for altering time, yet destined to forget both the history she changed and the history she rewrote.
When Peri discovers her name on a list of corrupt operatives, she realizes that her own life has been manipulated by the agency. She joins forces with a mysterious rogue soldier in a deadly race to piece together the truth about her final task, unable to trust even herself.
My Thoughts:
This was an intriguing book. Peri is a drafter. This means she has a unique ability to manipulate time. Problem is she forgets because of this and is open for others to manipulate her. She has to rely on her handler/boyfriend to fill in the gaps in her memory. When she realizes she has been being lied to, she has to find out exactly what is going on and why.
I will start this by saying, I like most all of the Kim Harrison books I've read. That being said, I had issues with this one. It had the action, betrayal, hurt, conflict, and never slowed down! My problem was mainly that I didn't like Peri. I wanted to but I just couldn't. I didn't feel invested in any of the characters. The author does know how to twist you up in the story though.
This was a 3/5 for me. It had plenty of action and betrayal but it was too repetitive and ambiguous. Maybe that will be worked out in future books.
Thank you to the author/publisher for the review copy of this book (via PUYB). I received this book in exchange for an honest review and the opinions stated above are 100% mine.
