The Ryder Code by Lawrence J. Epstein
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the third installment in an action-packed series. Jack Ryder, a Detective in 1943 New York is approached by a Nun by name of Sister Grace. She has been organizing a network to help Jewish orphans and protect them from the horrors of the Nazi Reich. Sister Grace wants Jack to help her solve the murder of the benefactor’s daughter and how it all connects back to the Jewish Orphans. Jack, determined to help others, struggles with his own demons and therefor throws himself into his work. He fights against time as the Nazi’s are onto Sister Grace and her operations and want to eliminate her.
A fast-paced historical thriller, this book is in the same vein as the first two. Meaning it is very well written and researched and the characters seem to jump off the pages. I enjoyed reading this book and would certainly grab the next book in the series.
