Escaping New York City and the espionage case that made her question everything, recently widowed FBI Agent Lina Connerly returns home to sell the house she has inherited in Greenfield, California. With her teenage son, Rory, Lina hopes to reassemble her life, reevaluate her career, and find a clear way forward. Adrift and battling insomnia, she discovers that her father’s sleepy hometown has been transformed into a Silicon Valley suburb on steroids, obsessed with an annual exam called the Wonder Test.

When students at her son’s high school go missing, reappearing under mysterious circumstances on abandoned beaches, Lina must summon her strength and her investigative instincts, pushing her own ethical boundaries to the limits in order to solve the crimes. Meanwhile, an old espionage case called Red Vine keeps calling her back into the fold. While Lina struggles to balance her new role as a single mother and the complex counterintelligence puzzles she is so adept at solving, Greenfield’s shadowy dangers creep closer to her own home.

The Wonder Test is a searing view of a culture that puts the well-being of children at risk for advancement and prestige, and a captivating story of the lengths a mother will go for her son.

I enjoyed it, the plot is well structured, layered enough to not guess the ending, and it was page turning especially the second half.

I had some challenges following the different characters and getting into the scenery as the places aren't described with much details, however the action scenes are very well detailed so no problem to get into the action.

The reader was good except for her french accent which didn't sound french at all and for some reasons sounded more Spanish. Other than that, it was a good performance.

Great Story, no unnecessary twists, focus on a good well constructed plot!

Brilliantly played out, full of wry comments on what it is to live in the spy world, schools for high success and real estate markets

Sinister

A thriller not to miss
