"A Reagan Arthur book"
A follow-up to Beat the reaper.
When a reclusive billionaire offers Dr. Peter Brown, a.k.a. Pietro Brnwa, a job accompanying a sexy but self-destructive paleontologist on the world's worst field assignment, Brown has no real choice but to say yes. Even if it means that an army of murderers, mobsters, and international drug dealers--not to mention a lake monster--are about to have a serious Pietro Brnwa problem.

Doesn't Hold Up to the First
submitted by Maria Maguire on July 15, 2023, 11:11pm
Definitely didn't like it as much as the first one. Parts of the story are told from different perspectives, but the characters don't seem to have very different voices. I didn't love that decision.
Also, all of Pietro/Peter/Lionel's dialogue felt really flat, while his internal monologue and narration is much more interesting. The fact that this book had much more dialogue than the first made it much harder to get through.
