Twisted Threads by Kaylin McFarren is an exemplary drafted novel which will leave you in stitches. The author made a turn of events nicely arranged. The setting of the story was mostly in the ocean during a tour of a British Lyons family. The plot is excellent and I can't wait commenting on the author's fantastic artistic skills. The protagonist was non other than Akira, who was a heroinious Yakusan lady. She managed to accomplish her mission even though it was really dangerous. I can't hesitate to rate this book 4 out of 4 stars for its captivating story. I, also, recommend it to everyone who enjoys the the world of fantasy.

Akira was a trained assassin, and she said she was not fighting for a living but for existence. Her assignment was to kill a British gallery owner cruising in the Caribbean. She was on the mission shortly after killing three Kurosaki's gang members. Yuki drove her off for her journey to pursue the murderers, and claimed it was Mitsui-san's order to do so. Akira asked for assistance but she refused. Yuki was later killed by Akira after crushing her "father" in an elevator on board. Devon, Akira's boyfriend, was held hostage to reveal where Akira hid the money her "father" was having.

This book is full of dialogues which breaths life to the story. This help us to know a lot of information about the characters, the setting and everything which build the story. For example, it is through the conversation between Devon and Akira that we know she was befriending the Lyon's family to get a clue of their motive. A lot of imagery was used like the description of clouds having a meaning to a certain person. Generally, all types of literary devices is used in this story. The conflict was like, Devon's love for Akira was conflicting with her mission to befriend someone in his family. I can't forget to single out the sexual encounters, of Devon and Akira, which can unwillingly robe your attention. This is also good for attracting most of the readers who love sexual stories.

Theme of vengeance was getting the better part of the story. Akira was on a revenge mission and also at some point Sara. Another theme was, theme of injustice. This was evident where murder cases was increasing in the ship, but nobody was concerned about it. The captain didn't report any incident and no investigations was carried out. Grief, panic, hate, insecurity and fear of losing life was the general view of the situation in the ship.

I conclude by saying, the book was enjoyable and excellently audited, and I didn't encounter any sort of error.
