Hide Away (Eve Duncan #20) by Iris Johansen

Iris Johansen's beloved forensic sculptor Eve Duncan is back and now the stakes are higher than ever. Dramatic changes are on the horizon for Eve and Joe Quinn and their relationship may never be the same. Faced with the task of protecting Cara Delaney, a young girl with ruthless enemies who want to see her dead, Eve takes her away to the remote Scottish Highlands where they join Jane MacGuire in search of a hidden treasure. But nowhere is far enough away to protect Cara from danger.

Review: I was given an ARC of Hide Away from NetGalley for an honest review and this is my review.
This was the second book in the trilogy that deals with Cara a little girl Eve is trying to protect from a Mexican druglord who kidnapped her and her sister a number of years earlier. Her sister was killed and Cara was taken away and hidden by their nanny until Eve reconstructed her sister's face and brought the monster who kidnapped them back into her life. Now in this book Eve has found out she is going to have a baby of her own and she goes on a treasure hunt with her adoptive daughter Jane in the Highlands to try to hide herself and Cara from the people who are looking for them because they want them dead.
Overall, this book was pretty good but it did move a bit slower then Johansen's books usually do. I wish it would have had it bit more action because for me it was a bit on the boring side in some parts. However, it did have a few twist and it did add more to the Eve Duncan story so that was enjoyable.
I am giving Hide Away four out of five stars.
