T.R. Ragan brings to us her brand new series featuring the gutsy and likeable character of Faith McCann. Whether you have read and enjoyed Ragan's Lizzy Gardner series or not, this book comes recommended with a big tick for a fast-paced, interesting and engaging read with one bit fat cliffhanger to keep you wanting for more.

Faith McMann comes home to a nightmare: her husband is killed and her son and daughter are taken. Although the intruders leave her for dead, she survives. Crippling grief and fear for her children make life unbearable. Until her anguish turns to anger…and she trades victimhood for vengeance.

There are some really harrowing scenes in this book and the book really made me think about what the main character of Faith McCann was feeling and experiencing. What she goes through is just horrific but instead of curling up in a corner to cry she turns all her anger, pain and fear into sheer gutsy determination to find her children and seek justice.

With a plot that grabs you quickly and does not let go I found this a really exciting read. The book brings to light the terrible plight of children who get tangled up in the sex trafficking trade and the men and women who perpetuate it. Around the world today billions are made from the trafficking of human beings against their will and it's an issue none of us should have our eyes closed to. I liked the way the author tackled the subject a lot in this book.

A book that just has an awful lot going for it and I LOVED Faith as a character as well as her brilliant friends that she teams up with in this novel. I am super keen to read the next book in this series and T.R. Ragan is one of my favourite writers. Her novels have never let me down. 5 stars for Furious!

I received a copy of this book to read and review with many thanks from the publisher via NetGalley.
