Fraternal twins are raised by an ambivalent aunt who provides an unusual childhood experience. One twin leaves home to join the armed forces and is ultimately assigned to a special forces unit conducting clandestine operations in North Korea. The death of one his unit members produces an introduction to an organized crime family specializing in murder for hire. The funeral for the family's son and an interest in their daughter brings new blood and methods to the family business.
And I thought
An interesting read. One For The Price Of Two was really
not what I expected.
Twins Logan and Kim were raised in a really strange environment by their aunt leading the two to be estranged from each other.
Logan as a teen leaves the home to join the military. He was a good and likeable character. Until his return to the states and
eventual retirement from the service.
A good, decorated and honorable serviceman turns into a less than noble character when he turns into a gun for hire.
Kim his sister makes some really bad choices. And ends up
in Las Vegas and runs into Logan.
The two become acquainted again.
This was a bit of a slow read for me.
The beginning was the back story and young life of Logan and
Kim.
Then when Logan leaves for the military the story revolves around his service to his country. Although it was interesting it was a bit of a slow read and took up alot of the book. It wasn't until I was almost through that I was really interested. Sadly though the more I read the less appealing the story become.
I couldn't help but think it was a combination of The God Father
with Logan's families business. And Kill Bill when Kim becomes
adapt at martial arts actually taking out the son of one of 'the families' rivals.
Although this book wasn't really one for me I have to say it was
well written. The characters were engaging and interesting.
If your a fan of crime families and suspense you'll enjoy reading this one.
I received a complimentary copy.
