Cara Putman has given me several enjoyable evenings of reading which is why I wanted to read Flight Risk though I knew I would dislike one aspect of the plot ... The fact that Savannah was divorced. And yes, I disliked that part of the book but it didn't take too much enjoyment away from the book.

I have been intrigued by Mrs. Putman's suspense, even though the characters have professions that I know next to nothing about, like lawyers as Savannah was in this novel.

Touching on hard subjects such as sex trafficking, suicide, and murder this is a hard to put down suspense that will have you on the edge of your seat!

I have to lower my rating of Flight Risk due to my dislike of some content that I felt didn't have a redemptive ending.

I really liked the journalism side of the book, it was really informative!

Those that have read the author's previous books will enjoy Flight Risk, as will readers who have enjoyed Lynette Eason, Dani Pettrey, and Dee Henderson's books.

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the author. All views expressed are only my honest opinion. ( )

Savannah Daniels is a prominent lawyer who meets a journalist when he reports that her estranged husband is part of a human trafficking ring operating in Tailand.An airline crash takes the life of one of the group of traffickers, while another supposedly commits suicided. Savannah's current clients become part of the investigation so Savannah must join forces with the journalist to learn the truth. ( )

Flight Risk was the first book I have ever read by Cara Putman and my first legal thriller. The pace of the story definitely kept my interest and I wanted to get to the end to finally have answers to my questions.

The story was filled with characters you love and characters you really aren't fond of, but all the characters had a lot of depth to them. There are so many complex issues addressed in this book...loss, grief, addiction, reliability of news, human trafficking just to name a few.

After reading this, I discovered that some of these characters are originally in her Hidden Justice series so I definitely need to add those to my TBR. ( )

Flight Risk is about Savannah Daniels, a tough attorney who has too much on her plate — a law practice, a drug-addicted sister who takes advantage of her at every opportunity, and a teenage niece in need of a loving and responsible care giver. When Savannah is questioned by reporter Jett Glover about illicit activities of her ex-husband, Savannah is unconcerned. The marriage has been over for 15 years, so it’s not her business. But when the story breaks, and then a plane crashes, and then there are other mysterious deaths, all of which involve people mentioned in the article, Savannah and Jett both wonder if there was more to the story than anyone knew — and if they can piece together the truth before the killer finishes the job.

I found Flight Risk to be full of action, emotion, and excitement. Savannah was likable, and I could empathize with her as she struggled to maintain relationships under difficult circumstances. I also enjoyed Jett’s character as he is emotionally open and honest and protective. The story moved at good pace and kept me interested. Overall, I really enjoyed Flight Risk and look forward to checking out more books by Cara Putman.
