Ruthless by Susan Kaye Quinn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Susan Kaye Quinn's Ruthless, Debt Collector 8 seems to be the set up for the conclusion of Debt Collector Season One. On Goodreads the blurb is:
"With Elena's help, Lirium attempts to slash into Candy's files to get evidence about the conspiracy to transfer our kids."
This is probably more information than I would normally want to divulge while trying to keep the review interesting and encouraging you or discouraging you to read it according to my recommendation.
I do recommend it. It would be meaningless not to recommend it if you have read this far into the season. You're very likely to finish the season as Lirium and those who have interacted with him remain interesting characters and Ms. Quinn has the plot on this season set to 78 RPM, for those who may recall what a vinyl record is.
Elena, a.k.a. "Apple Girl" has turned out to be one of the more interesting characters in this "season". She has been key in several of Lirium's "turning points" throughout the season, and in this book a good deal is revealed about her - similar to the info dump on Valac in "Driven, Debt Collector 5". Also, turns out Elena is a surprise a minute in this book.
I'm giving the book four stars and recommend it.
For any who remember Mr. Brodskey who had received a pay out in an earlier book, he makes a reappearance in this book and seems he has been won over the cause surrounding Madam Anastazja's multiple businesses. Mr. Brodskey's latest volunteer test subject is another factor our author, Ms. Quinn, uses to drive Lirium through the story like a thoroughbred racehorse.
