What a fascinating combination of elements went into this latest case for the Covert Eyes group...a rare manuscript, a major malware attack, an army of drones, smuggled weapons, high profile murders, a presidential visit to London, trained falcons, and legends about Dracula! Luckily, half the team is already in London when things start to go sideways. Nicholas and Mike are visiting his family, and Ben is vacationing with Melinda St. Germaine, the beautiful member of Parliament he met during the last investigation. The FBI teams up with MI5, MI6, and Scotland Yard to track down the person or group responsible for the malware, while also trying to find the killer who is targeting important industrialists and government figures.
Each of the team members show their strengths: Nicholas and Adam work on the software, Mike investigates and does amazing things with her Glock, and Ben works with Harry Drummond and the Security Services to keep the efforts coordinated. Readers can see Adam maturing as an agent and as part of the team, and watch the personal relationship continue to deepen between Nicholas and Mike. There are high speed chases, old legends, synchronized drone bombardments, and elaborate double-crosses. The more the team uncovers, the less sense any of it makes - and the president refuses to postpone his visit. How can they ever untangle all the leads in time?
This series continues to deliver fast-paced action, humor to break the tension, intricate plots, and the sizzling attraction between the team's leaders. Highly recommended for fans of suspense thrillers.
I read an e-book provided by the publisher through NetGalley.
