Then, a big career break for Parker collides with a new love he longs to nurture and the nightmares his grandfather can no longer escape. Sudden peril threatens to shatter not only Parker’s legal prospects but also his life and the lives of those dearest to him.
My Thoughts:
Mysterious World War II secrets. The ability to predict
the future in the courtroom. Random people coming into your life for unknown
reasons. This book has all the makings of a great read. Unfortunately if fell
completely flat for me.
I had such a hard time getting into this book and holding
my attention to the story. I did not relate to the characters and felt their
personalities were a little far-fetched at times. I felt it was impossible for
any of the characters to not see their gifts staring them right in the face all
the time.
The younger characters seemed to be consumed with
themselves much more than necessary, and the older ones were just all over the
place.
Simply put – this was not the book for me.
