The Ninja Betrayed | Featured Thriller Review
By Julie Ciccarelli
"Eldridge’s series just keeps getting better. While readers can enjoy this book without having read the first two, a series highlight is Lily’s evolution and the complexity and growth of her relationships. Highly recommended for readers who enjoy strong heroines forging their own paths, like Deanna Raybourn’s Victoria Speedwell, S.J. Rozan’s Lydia Chin, and Gigi Pandian’s Jaya Jones." |
