This tightly worded book included some swerves I didn't see coming. No extra fluff here. Plot driven, no sidetracking! I enjoyed it!

T. Davis Bunn is a fabulous writer. And I really enjoyed this book. Fast-paced, intriging, suspenseful, elixer enters the world of pharmaceutical corporate espionage. The main character, Taylor Knox (known for his surfing abilities), is blackmailed into helping the company founder's family search for the missing heiress to their pharmaceutical empire and fortune. His search takes him all over the world, through surfing communities and monestaries and corporate offices and private yachts, each step drawing him deeper into a web of lethal danger for himself and the woman he seeks. It's a great read.
I really enjoyed this book. Davis Bunn always brings a good read. Not quite as good as the Lazarus Trap but still really good.
Great mystery... great characters... Christian fiction.
Davis Bunn is an amazing writter. He is definately a page turner. He doesn't disappoint me in this Elixir story. I love his writtings.
