The fifth book in the Cahills vs. Vespers series “Trust No One” is the penultimate book of the series.  So naturally a lot of things happen in this book and it ends in a complete cliffhanger.  The main purpose of this novel is to set the stage for a grand finale.  Everything that could go wrong does go wrong in this story.  This leaves the readers drooling for the finale, which is the job of any good penultimate book of a series.

In this novel we find the main characters Dan and Amy reaching the limit of their strength.  Amy begins to get tired of taking such difficult tasks and making decisions that affects the lives of many others.  So she starts to go into a shell and becomes disconnected from rest of the world.  Dan on the other hand realizes he must take charge.  The only way he knows to do that is by taking the master serum made by his ancestor Gideon Cahill.  He knows that eventhough the serum gives immense power; it is also unstable and can even kill him.

At the end of the book Amy must give Gideon Cahill’s ring to Vesper One.  Cahills had been protecting the ring for five centuries, but Amy gave in to save the lives of seven kidnapped Cahills.  They then realize Vesper’s plan is to end the world by putting together a machine that can cause natural disasters all over the world.  And it was Dan and Amy that handed Vesper One all the materials needed for the machine.  This makes Amy become completely unresponsive, and compels Dan to take the serum. 

This is where the novel ends, leaving the readers craving for more.  What effect will the serum have on Dan?  Will Amy recover from the depression?  Will anyone be able to stop Vesper One?  And the most intriguing of all, who is Vesper One?  The book serves its purpose of guaranteeing that readers will be eagerly awaiting the final book of the Cahills vs. Vespers series.
