Yikes
Leave it to Mr. Heaton to write a seat-of-your-pants thriller. But what lasts, at least for this reader, is the creepiness factor. I don't want to put any spoilers in the review, but there're some actions by the good guys that ought to make you sit and think about their morality. As you are supposed to do. It's easy to see the paving on the road to hell. Looking forward to seeing where this journey will take us next in the next book in the series.

Must read
I absolutely loved this book! Mind you I have enjoyed all of the books in this series, and after starting this series after reading the 3rd book it all is so much clearer. Even though all can be read as Standalones I would definitely recommend reading ALL the books, as this authors writing style will leave you wanting more!! It is so well written and I just love the characters. And who wouldn't want to go through a portal and magically be transported to somewhere new in an instant!

Second in The Race is On series
This book is the second in The Race Is On series which follows Uma and Ethan as they develop the LEAP system; capable of transporting people across the world.This book is set 6 years after the first and begins with Uma leaving behind her LEAP technology and instead focusing on a system for Green Energy cars. Unfortunately, the past has a way of catching up with her and with forces coming from the political and criminal worlds, she is out to save her work and her life.This was another well written book and I enjoyed reading it. I felt that it had a lot more strands than the first book and I sometimes got confused about the different people and places. There was a lot of description throughout, but I have to admit I skimmed some of it. I enjoyed all the action and it tied up all the strands together well at the end so that you understood where it was all going. The book has relatively short chapters and even though it was longer than the first in the series, I still flew through it. It also has a nice ending leading into the next book. I am very much looking forward to reading the last in the series!

Fast paced sci-fi thriller
This is the second book in The Race Is On series. The writing style pulls you in from the first page and just like book one, it gets straight into the action. The story is full of detail and the plot intricately weaves together. The author is great at ramping up the tension as the story unfolds.The story is told 6 years after the events in Leap. Once again, our strong female lead, Uma, wants to make the world a better place, but higher powers have other ideas. It seems like everyone wants to get their hands on LEAP, a device that can teleport anyone and anything across the world in the blink of an eye. Can Uma stop them, or will she have to give up on everything she believes in? It is a plot that will grab you and have you turning the pages!The book brings sci-fi and reality close together and throws up some ethical/moral dilemmas. How far do we need to go to save the world, and what happens if we ignore the damage already caused to meet our own selfish goals? I think this is such a fantastic series, which feels well researched and full of information that will make you think, whilst keeping you on the edge of your seat, guessing until the very end!I can't wait for book three!

It’s not easy being green.
Green Ray is the second book in "The Race is On" series and picks up the story of Uma Jakobsdóttir six years on from where we left her. Having abandoned her potentially dangerous teleportation technology she is now focused on reducing the world's carbon footprint when the CIA get in touch to ask her to work with the government. However, despite Uma's wishes, no one will leave Leap well enough alone and terror attacks, political intrigue and twists ensue as she fights once again to keep the world safe from the immoral and dangerous implications of the wrong people getting their hands on her technology.With the science and stakes having been established in the first book, Green Ray moves at a faster pace and plays out like a classic political thriller with the focus on shadowy entities and hidden motives. Solid characters and plenty of action propel the story along and anyone who enjoyed "Leap" will find themselves quickly sucked back in to the world. An accomplished follow up that mixes up enough to stay fresh while feeling like a natural progression to Uma's continuing story.

Thought provoking and fast paced
Green Ray is the second in The Race Is On series and stands well on its own. Uma Jakobsdóttir finds herself in a very morally dubious position as the revolutionary LEAP technology comes under government scrutiny-and under the shadow of an unknown villain.This is a fast-paced science fiction thriller that will hook you with its intricate, thought-provoking plot, weaving political intrigue with high-stakes action. It's not just a story of technological advancements but challenges you to consider their ethical implications and the consequences of wielding such power.With twists right up to the very end, Green Ray is a must-read for those who love complex, heart-pounding adventures.

2nd in The Race is on series
We see Uma and Ethan once again in another fast-paced and suspenseful adventure. So many different characters in this with different agendas but with LEAP being central once again. It really felt like all was lost at one point and I felt like we were losing Uma. However, she and Ethan really do make a great team and they somehow made it through again!!I feel like we've still got so much ground to cover with those two and they're both still smarting from their past lives and experiences. Intrigued to see how things develop in the next installment. They can be annoying in their approach towards each other but I feel like they're better together.The other characters bring a range of different events to the foreground showing that there's a lot going on and lots of misdirection at play. Trust is a hard thing to come by and Uma does get mixed up in some terrible events that she holds secret for whatever that may cost her in the future.
