Reviewed by Romuald Dzemo for Readers' Favorite

The Enigma Rising by Charles V Breakfield and Roxanne E Burkey is a spellbinding thriller, Book Two in The Enigma Series. The R-Group is a team of highly skilled professionals in information technology, a kind of group with an all-seeing eye and the ability to be a step ahead of the others in the world of information technology. That’s what everyone would think this group is, but when they are hired to locate a missing beautiful girl, the daughter of a very rich client, the group comes into contact with two IT prodigies, brothers Carlos and Juan. Even with the expertise of the two brothers, can the R-Group locate the missing heiress?

Charles V Breakfield and Roxanne E Burkey have created a work that will be adored by anyone who loves technology and thrillers. One immediately feels as though one is reading work from the creators of the most innovative technology themselves, a suggestion that the authors did a lot of research for this story. Although I never read the previous book in the series, I found myself immersed from the very beginning, with the introduction of Thiago and his loss over what to do with his missing daughter, Lara, the beautiful descriptions, and the expert storytelling. The book handles themes that contemporary readers will enjoy enormously. I enjoyed the way technology is presented in this work, but it’s the investigation that will leave most readers breathless. The Enigma Rising is a rare kind of thriller with a bend on sci-fi, a highly entertaining story, a powerful plot and a masterful use of technology.
