A World I Never Made by James LePore is an international thriller. Suspense, violence, a bit of romance, terror plots and a large body count make this fast paced book a page turner. Well developed characters keep the reader engaged and running along with them for the ride.
It is a call every parent hopes they never receive. Pat Nolan is called to Paris to identify the body of his daughter, the victim of a suicide. But Pat feels immense relief when he realizes that the body he has been asked to identify is not his daughter's. He quickly determines that she must have faked her own death, and that she needs his help.
This sets the stage for a wild ride. Pat's daughter was involved with some very bad men and Pat and a French police investigator must traverse through Paris and into the Czech Republic in search of answers. Was she involved in a terror plot or was she just a pawn in a very dangerous scheme? Or could it be that she tried to play her own game and got caught? The body count mounts as Pat tries to follow his daughter's clues to find her, and he is racing against a band of terrorists that are bent on finding her first.
The complex relationship between Pat and his daughter makes the novel that much more interesting. A thrill ride, but not one for the faint of heart. There is quite a bit of violence in this novel. Definitely worth the read, if you don't mind that sort of thing.
Happy Reading!
