The ability to chase down psychic criminals as a Cleaner for the Foundation defined North Chastian, but those days are numbered. He is losing his abilities and to protect himself is forced to wear special glasses. They add to the mystic of the Cleaner but do little to protect the man from his fears and worries. When his father is attacked and in a coma, North will face ALL THE COLORS OF NIGHT to find out who is behind the attack.
He is teamed up with an intriguing go-between, Sierra Raines. Sierra is trying to restart her career and life after dealing with false accusations and dismissal from a prominent auction house. She might not be completely on board with taking him on as a client, after all, he works for the Foundation, and that still has a less than stellar reputation with the average talent. But, she needs the money and the Foundation is known to pay their bills, and North has more than her interest in finding answers intrigued.
ALL THE COLORS OF NIGHT is Jayne Ann Krentz at her very best. Her Fogg Lake series began with THE VANISHING and moves smoothly into this offering. If you have not read book 1, this one can be read as a stand alone, but do yourself a favor and go back and grab that one and enjoy it too. We get to revisit some of the characters that inhabit Fogg Lake, the Foundation and a couple of people from the last visit to this world. I think it is also intriguing when a couple of Jones' are mentioned. Fans of Ms. Krentz will understand the reference to other books by this varied author.
North and Sierra are perfectly mismatched personalities that are amazing together. North is part of the Foundation, though his family history is touched with innuendo and conjecture dealing with his grandfather, but Sierra is working to find herself. Trusting each other takes about two seconds for him and a little longer for her. But, to Sierra's defense, having dealt with being a scapegoat for her past job and having collectors trying to kill her, does make one less trusting. The one thing I really enjoyed about ALL THE COLORS OF NIGHT, besides every single word, was the respect that North shows Sierra. She is a woman who knows the world around her and understands where she stands in it and it was nice to see a man accept the strength of a woman.
ALL THE COLORS OF NIGHT is a captivating, action packed read with twists and turns that will have you even more pasted to the pages with your heart in your throat. Through everything faced by the hero and heroine there is also the warmth of two families that come together, a sweet and steamy romance, and intrigue that has them confronted by an unexpected enemy. Another amazing read that is unique to Ms. Krentz's gift to her fans.
