As with the previous entries — “Traitors From Inside Out” and “Traitors Unleashed” — “Beyond Insanity” details the battle royale between a pair of Swedish medical conglomerates. Althonat Global, led by series protagonist Martina Strömstedt Edgren, is a natural-remedy provider, but it spends much of its time trying to reverse the genocidal effects of the other company, Citaraph.
Having spent three books building up quite a bit of animosity toward the traitors in the series, I found the climax and resolution of “Beyond Insanity” very satisfying to read.
The Traitors series is well worth your time. The writing is strong, the pacing is perfect, the characters are memorable, and the books feel ominously prescient: there are several disturbing parallels to real-life events and possibilities. Hopefully, for all of our sakes, if something like MM Justine laid out in this series becomes reality, we’ll have our own Martina Strömstedt Edgren to save the day.

Traitors Beyond Insanity is an outstanding depiction of a palpable reality that challenges the complexity of human nature.
Martina’s tenacity to balance work, family, and the moral obligation to help mankind is something we could all draw inspiration from. In an era where relationships are fragile and moral consciousness is often brushed aside, we become too self-absorbed in our own realities that we subliminally undermine the greater good. We can’t all be a hero, sure, but exercising a little awareness and care in our increasingly resource-depleting world can collectively make a difference.
A laudable conclusion to the terrific trilogy.

In the final installment of the Traitors Trilogy, Martina emerges stronger and more courageous. Her journey is difficult, she takes risks and ends up in a dangerous and distressful situation, all the while she is taking care of her newborn baby.
Her predicaments escalate, both on a personal and business level. But her courage and virtues endure, her character stays exceptional and admirable. There are many twists and surprises, and when she got kidnapped I got so scared for her.
A brilliant story, a well-written book. I highly recommend this book.

Once again, MM Justine sets up a great, intense story! This entire trilogy was full of action and suspense, and I enjoyed it. Though I was sad to see the story end, I was happy it ended the way that it did after all the trials Martina went through.
Her determination and stubbornness were as prevalent as ever in this book, and I loved seeing her personality play out once more throughout the book. She always put her work first, placing relationships on the back burner at times, but that just showed her focus and perseverance to reach her end goal of stopping the bad guys.
Thank you, MM Justine, for a great trilogy!

Traitors Beyond Insanity closes the Traitors Trilogy and just because of it, all the history’s pending and questions are finally settled. Though, what is enchanting in this novel is how the plot works out and culminates into a very satisfactory ending (no spoilers, please) in all aspects of Martina’s life. The very ending is adorable! The author has excelled herself this way.
The narrative is evolving, maybe some readers can find the beginning a bit slow, but it is not, this is part of the rhythm and the development of the plot. The characters, as well as Martina, are well developed and realistic, the scenes are convincing and as I said, the end is truly satisfactory.
I believe this trilogy can be used as a base for a screen film adaptation.
Another remarkable point is that the author created a fictional, but contemporary heroin. I suppose many women identify themselves with her.
