Superficial but thoroughly entertaining storytelling, characters that manage to be developed without much backstory, and a fascinating, exciting suspense plot.
I don’t remember much from the first Knight and Moon book, Curious Minds, but I didn’t need to. Their questions lead to a larger mystery that has been guarded by the National Park Service for a century, and as they shed light on the conspiracy, they have to dodge bullets-and hatchets-because someone doesn’t want the truth known. Together, this ragtag, mismatched trio will embark on a worldwide investigation that will expose a conspiracy one hundred years in the making.When Emerson Knight’s friend Wayan Bagus, a buddhist monk, discovers the island where he had been living as a hermit has gone missing, Knight and his impromptu, unofficial team of investigators go on an adventure to find out what could possibly have happened to make an entire island disappear.
He now lives in an RV behind Emerson's house. Vernon has been Emerson's loyal and enthusiastic partner in crime since childhood. Riley Moon has a Harvard business degree and can shoot the eyes out of a grasshopper at fifty feet, but she can't figure out how to escape the vortex of Emerson Knight's odd life. Since a crack team isn't available, he enlists Riley Moon and his cousin Vernon. When clues lead to a dark and sinister secret that is being guarded by the National Park Service, Emerson will need to assemble a crack team for help. And finding a missing island is better than Christmas morning in the Knight household. Brilliant and boyishly charming Emerson Knight likes nothing better than solving an unsolvable, improbable mystery.
It had a mountain, beaches, a rain forest, and a volcano. The island was about two hundred miles northeast of Samoa. Buddhist monk Wayan Bagus lost his island of solitude and wants to get it back.
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The irrepressibly charming duo of Emerson Knight and Riley Moon returns in another gripping mystery by #1 New York Times bestselling author Janet Evanovich.
