Cover Rating: 4/5

Life continues to move on since it consists of time and time is the constant, a frequently changing substance that we all are bound to. Same goes Family that we were introduced by Tyler in the first book of the trilogy: Smugglers in Paradise.

After a deeply tragic consequence of Julia’s death, leaves many to pieces and some just scattering around the sea. The family of four siblings is no longer bound to love as they were once. Steven the eldest one continues to chase whispers concerning the death of his sister along with his childhood friend and son, Konnor nephew to Julia. Katie, Steven’s other sister along with her husband welcomes her father into retirement by opting for the role of a matriarch of the Ramos family.

Boris, the big fish, has left the Ramos family and with any contact and has disappeared into a void. This void consists of his business ventures that include illegal transactions of objects and drugs from one port to another. A point to be note that the sea where it all started is still a major part of the surrounding of Ramos family. Boris and Steven both are constituted by it.

Lastly, as the plot drives forward a reader has chance to become more familiar with Steven’s son, Konnor. Due his genetics and family history of taste of the sea, more adventures are waiting for a reader to experience. As I mentioned before, Scott Tyler’s writing style is smooth. After reading his second work I cannot believe that how less an effort a reader like me has to put to cope with the plot and its scions. The narrative voice is stronger in this one and with the elements of adventure and thrill, it gets better.

The characterisation is at display with elegance. I like the fact that Tyler took time to develop two minor characters from the previous book to play a major role in this one. The theme of betrayal and greed does come under the scope of this plot. If you read the first part and are looking forward to reading this one, I highly recommend it and with my assurances that there is not thin line of disappointment marked anywhere in this book. If all of the above sounds compelling, I would suggest go for this one.

5 out of 5! Recommended

Note: I received this book from the author but that doesn’t mean my review is breaking any reviewing rules and I thank them for their effort with all my heart.
