And Then She Was Gone by J. Daniel Sawyer

5.0

There's a lot I'd like to say on this short novel.

J Daniel Sawyer is great for his wit, characters, and really doing his homework. This book's action sequences shows that Sawyer's knowledge of guns, computer systems, and cars are beyond the typical action writer, and that realism really makes the action compelling.

It is also a Private eye mystery novel set in the 21st century, with all the technology and techniques of the period. This makes for an interesting spin on a genre I still have conceived as stuck in the 1940s. There's a little bit of taking the piss out of us millennials, but I know it's in good humour.

And Then She Was Gone is a great mystery novel, and I really recommend it to anyone who is compelled by a really great mystery and adventure. Perfect for a flight or train ride.
