This third book in the trio sound facsinating. I still have to read the first two books though before I can fully grasp this one. Thanks for the review.

It's a very good book. A mystery that involves the disappearance of Billy Battles. Quite interesting. Kudos to the author.

The book sounds complex to me unless I begin with the previous books from the series. Too much details. Nonetheless, from your brilliant review the book seems interesting.

Spies, revolutionaries, political operatives; this one sounds intriguing. I may give it a look. Thanks for the review, Carol-Anne. :techie-studyingbrown:

It’s amazing this story originated from Billy Battles’s journal but I haven’t read the earlier books and I don’t plan on reading this anytime soon. Good review

I love historical novels and I haven't read the other books in the trilogy yet so I'll definitely add these to my reading list.

Your love for this book is almost palpable. Thank you for a fun review. The plot seems a little convoluted to start with the third book, so I would want to start with the first.

How thorough and captivating a feeling I experience from reading your review. How someone can mysteriously disappear while simultaneously having an epic adventure is such a cunning dichotomy. Thank you for sharing your insight.

This mysterious book got me thinking about what happened in part one and two. I have to get the first two to really understand what is going on. However, this review is thoroughly written and explanatory. Congratulations on BOTD. I am really curious as to what happened.

This third installment sounds like a great ride of misfortune and adventure - and misadventure. I love undercover protagonists. This one would be fun. Thanks for the review.
