    About this audiobook

    Cedar McLeod would like nothing more than to return to Tír na nÓg, help rebuild the mythical kingdom, and start a new life for herself and her daughter, Eden. But peace isn’t what Cedar finds after being reunited with her little girl.

    Nuala—who kidnapped and terrorized Eden in her previous bid for power—has returned and is making a persuasive claim for the vacant throne. The devastation such a ruler would bring upon both the kingdom and the human world is unthinkable. With no one else to stake a convincing counter-claim, Cedar steps forward…but first she must prove her worth beyond a doubt.

    Her opportunity comes when she is charged with finding an ancient treasure, the Stone of Destiny, and returning it to its rightful home. It is a quest that will lead her to question her beliefs, and push her loyalties to their limits. If she succeeds, Cedar could grant her new world and her new family a chance to flourish again. If not…destruction may be the only path ahead.

    Into the Fire, the second book in the Thin Veil series, is a captivating blend of Celtic myth, mystery, and adventure that delves deeper into the ancient world first explored in Through the Door.

      INTO THE FIRE by Jodi McIsaac is a book filled with myth, legend and magic. I really enjoyed the way she weaved in and out of two worlds in her book. The story takes place in present times and many of the things she writes about like “The Hobbit” are well known to many. It helped me to feel like I was a part of the story. I was entranced by her writing from beginning to end and highly recommend anyone with a taste for fantasy to read her book.
    • 3/5
      I love Suzanne Brockmann books, a lot of action and some romance....perfect. Her characters are realistic...none are perfect in character or looks which make it so much better than a 'romance' novel. A lot of action and witty dialogue...which I love.
    • 4/5
      I'm sorry to say that I didn't like this one much. I believe that the plot about Murphy/Hannah and Izzy/Eden didn't do it for me.In the first place, I believe that Izzy deserved someone better, someone more down to earth to balance his "craziness" and to make him feel really appreciated and deserving of some respect (after all he's the Goofus of the team and deep inside he's "jealous" of his friends because they are married with wonderful women) but, I guess he did the honourable thing and we really can't fight love, so...Eden Gillman it will be. Murphy and Hannah didn't so it for me and I can't even understand why. They didn't click or warm my heart. Nothing more to say.And finally, finally, Sophia/Decker/Dave. I love this one ending; finally Sophia realized that her happiness was just a short distance away. I love Decker but Sophia and Dave were meant for each other.In general, another great story full of twist and turns and things blowing.
    • 5/5
      Dave Malkoff and Sophia Ghaffari is the only reason why I have checked out this book. A buddy of mine knows that I am a big fan of Dave Malkoff and that I think that he and Sophia would make a cute couple. In my circle. I was the only one seeing Sophia and Dave as a couple. My buddies were seeing Sophia and Decker. I honestly can't see Sophia with Decker. He doesn't love her. Yet, everyone sees things differently. The book will get three stars. Dave and Sophia is the only reason why I am giving 5 stars. The rating doesn't have anything to do with the book per say.

      This book is one of Brockmann's Troubleshooters series. As always in these books, there are several storylines which are treated more or less with the same attention by the author. This time, the first one is about Vinh Murphy, a former Navy SEAL whom the Police and FBI want to find because they think he has killed his wife's murderer. Vinh himself isn't sure if he did that, since he is an alcoholic and was drunk at the time. His best friend, Hannah, wants to help him find out what happened. Another storyline deals with Eden Gillman, the pregnant 18 year old sister of Navy SEAL Danny Gillman. His colleague Izzy Zanella marries her, even though he knows he's not the baby's father. The third storyline is about several Troubleshooters characters known from previous books - all of them are deeply traumatized in one or another way. All of these characters meet in an action-packed finale.I'll have to say that I enjoyed reading this book. It's certainly not the best in the series (these are Out of Control and Gone to Far), but it isn't the worst either. The characters are interesting and as always, it's well written. Brockmann is really good at writing action scenes. But there's something that bothers me a bit. Nearly every Navy SEAL-character from Brockmann's previous books gets a job at Troubleshooters, a California-based security firm. Their partners, too, if they happen to be unemployed. All of them are so damaged and traumatized in one way ore another that they need therapy. This makes Troubleshooters seem more like a charity than an enterprise. I am aware this is fiction, but some of these things require me - the reader - to suspend disbelief more than I can, and that's not an entirely good thing.
    • 4/5
      Excellent. Have liked other Brockmann books better but this one is very good. In particular, I liked the Zanella and Eden Gillman characters. All of the characters are interesting and well-drawn -- no cardboard cut-outs. The plot has suspense although not much mystery. At a few points, things slow down a little but then they pick up again.
    • 5/5
      You've got to make sure that when you sit down to read a troubleshooters novel that you've got at least an hour to devote. As usual there are several plots, several couples, and several time periods involved; however, this is the reason I love this series. This particular novel is primarily the story of Vinh Murphy and Hannah Whitfield. Vinh is basically a man out of control with grief over the death of his wife Angelina, who was killed in Hot Target (Troubleshooters, Book 8); Hannah was Angelina's AND Vinh's best friend and the person who introduced them to each other. The characters all have some type of issue going on and I truly love how the people in this series are so flawed yet strong. I highly recommend people reading this series in order.
    • 5/5
      I adore this series - Brockmann's characters are so clearly drawn, that even when meeting characters that were introduced ages ago (5, 6 books back), they're still so easily recognized. She also writes about gut-wrenching danger and falling in love in such away, I feel like *I'm* one of the characters. Yes, some of the "I've always loved you" stuff can get a teeny bit cheesy, but her characters don't necessarily get the cheesy romance novel happily ever after - they all work at it, and as the series moves on, it's nice to see characters from past novels working hard at their relationships...
    • 5/5
      I thought it was great. A lot of the reviewers on Amazon were disappointed because they were led to believe in the last few books that certain couples were going to end up together, but didn't. But with this series, just give it time. You never know what's going to happen. And even when you think a couple's story is over, it's not. I now consider this series to be like a soap opera. Therefore, it would be hard to read as a stand alone novel. There are just so many characters that if you haven't read the series, you would be lost. It just makes more sense to you and means more to you when you know the back story on everybody. Supposedly, the next book in the series starts the day this one ends, so I'm really looking forward to it now. I hope she gets back into SEAL or Troubleshooter missions in the next one.
    • 4/5
      Brockmann continues her Troubleshooters series with the story of Vinh Murphy who lost his wife in a shootout in a previous book in the series. Vinh blames his wife's death on a terrorist group called the Freedom Network and now the leader of the network, Tim Ebersole is dead. The problem is, Vinh isn't sure whether or not he killed Ebersole. A secondary relationship features Izzy Zanella.This book features many characters from previous Troubleshooter novels and sometimes I got lost trying to remember which character was which. I had a hard time getting into this one, but once I got into it, I really enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to the next installment.
    • 4/5
      Very good read. Brockmann introduces a couple of new characters, includes a lot of the previous characters. If you enjoyed the book about Jimmy and Tess, they have a big part in this too.
