Dante revealed.

Say No More (Gravediggers #3) by Liliana Hart.   


                               


Tight prose only adds to this episode of the Gravediggers. (Lord) Dante Malcolm is front and centre, a former British Intelligence force agent and art thief extraordinaire, now an agent with Gravediggers. He is equally matched by Liv Rothschild. Sadness encompasses Liv. Her twin sister Elizabeth disappeared, taken when they we playing hooky in Harrods. No trace of Elizabeth was ever found. Liv blames herself. This effects all her actions. She is driven by her sister's disappearance. She spends her life trying to make up for that. Liv is a Detective with Interpol and is on the hunt for art thief Simon Locke, an alter ego for Dante. Of course things are complex. This is a Gravedigger's novel after all. Their paths first cross prior to Dante joining the  Gravedigger's team.
It seems Liv and Dante had an intense sexual relationship that always seems to have its outlet in dark and dangerous situations. Added spice or just no time?
The international political backdrop of the novel is so today that I really had to take a step back. I don't think we'd quite reached the level of today's international angst when Hart was writing this.
Eve Winter is still her cold hard self. That woman really freaks me out. I so want to see her story, or maybe not. Can't help but wonder how she came to be.
Elaine the computer is hilarious. Her innocently matter of fact questionsI about being human and what that entails keep you shaking your head.  am wondering how and if she's going to develop.
Apparently she's "the perfect union of technology and robotics... She was free to think on her own and had developed her own personality, much to the amusement of them all."
The body she going to choose when she finally has a physical manifestation if she does have one will be fascinating, and a little creepy.
A slick, many faceted and engaging thriller that holds your interest.
