The Night Window (Jane Hawk #5) @deankootnz @randomhouse #thriller #series #female protagonist @absltmom

I have loved this series and am very sad to see it come to a close. It was thrilling, “unputdownable”, and I always looked forward to the next installment featuring the brave, strong, and courageous Jane Hawk. It is truly an amazing feat by this author to have kept this series constantly fascinating and awesome.

Jane Hawk again is battling the evil forces of the Arcadians, a group that wants domination so badly that they inject nanoparticles into people so that they can control them. Triggered by a phrase, the controlled group will acquiesce to the command of the speaker, and wreck havoc if they are instructed to do so, even to the point of their own suicide. It is mind control carried to the ultimate. It’s a way to achieve domination and with every telling of the story, Dean Kootnz has created such amazingly vile and horrendous villains, as well as people who are valiant and stalwart.

In Jane, the author gives the reader an extremely strong brilliant protagonist, one that will go the ends of a earth to protect her son and the people she loves. Jane possesses that resiliency that have made her such a heroine and one that has propelled these five books into something special and fascinating.

Mr Koontz has been able to carry this story with his uncanny ability to present both the dark side of humanity contrasting with all that is good and noble in society. I am sad to see this series end as I could always look forward to a story that I knew would never disappoint me. I definitely recommend this book and the preceding ones to all of those readers who love being mesmerized and fascinated. Jane, you will be missed.

Thank you to Dean Kootnz, BantamBooks, and NetGalley for a copy of this awesome novel. This book is due to be published on May 14, 2019.
