Interesting and fun
Fast Track to Glory has a great story line. It is a well-written mystery that moves from Italy to India. This is one book that keeps you engrossed and you probably will not want to put the book down! The pace is steady with just about the right amount of background. The character development is not that strong. I wish the two main characters had a little more depth to them.
The story begins with Nina Monte, a well-respected professor at the University of Padua, and a secret meeting with three European officials. They want to hire her to verify the authenticity of an ancient artefact hidden at the bottom of Lake Garda in Italy. Alessandro Pini joins Monte and together they begin to unravel the truth about this artefact. What begins as a treasure hunt takes a turn towards mythology and from there to something even more mystical.
Overall this was a good read with several unexpected twists and turns.
