Two Nights by Kathy Reichs
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Sure, I’m damaged. I live alone with no permanent phone or internet account. I have a scar I refuse to fix. I dislike being touched and have a temper that’s my own worst enemy. I use icy showers and grueling workouts to escape stress and trick my brain into making me feel strong. Yeah I have my crazies, but I’ve managed to cling to my identity. To not lose myself.
Sunday Night is a complex character in this thriller. Even though she isolates herself from everyone, she connects to others in her drive to find justice. If not for herself, for those she has been hired to find. Her service has been requested by a grandmother seeking to find her granddaughter who was taken by terrorist in Chicago. Her grandson and daughter were killed in the terrorist attack in a apparent attack against a Jewish school.
Night goes to Chicago looking for clues and finds trouble. The kind of trouble that gets you killed.
This is the best kind of thriller where it is both plot and character driven. The surveillance that Night does to bring out the terrorist and to protect herself is detailed and quite thrilling. You are kept on your toes and your fingers are turning the next page.
There are unforgettable characters in this one as well which builds upon the plot and the development of Night’s own character. I was totally entertained with this one.
A Special Thank You to Random House Publishing and Netgalley for the ARC and the opportunity to post an honest review.
