Publisher Description
When a prominent lawyer is shot while waiting at a suburban stop sign it sets off a nation-wide manhunt for an elusive killer. Special Agent Jack Randall of the FBI finds himself appointed to track down and stop the shooter. Not by his superiors, but by the killer himself.
As more bodies fall the shooter takes his message to the press, earning the support of the public with his choice of targets and confounding the FBI at every turn. From the desert of Nevada to the urban jungle of New York City, Jack and his team follow the trail of bodies and haunting messages left behind by the killer. With the pressure to find him mounting on Jack, the assassin’s crimes grow bolder, and his message more sinister and closer to home.
It becomes clear to Jack that in order to find the shooter, he may have to look inside his own past, and become the man he was years ago.

Brilliant. Everything l had planned got put on hold until I
Finished reading. Good story. Well written. Suspense was maintained and the hero was believable so was the situations. Definitely can recommend as a good read. Thoroughly engrossing.

Enjoyed this book immensely.

Author
American. From Florida. Writes books. That’s all I know.
Plot
Prominent lawyer shot and killed in broad daylight. Nationwide manhunt for the killer ensues, but body count rises. Special Agent Jack Randall finds he has “skin in the game” with the perpetrator. Perp uses the press to manipulate public opinion in his favour. Our hero is forced to reflect on his past. Stuff happens, action moves from Nevada to NYC and most parts in between. There's a shedload of detail about guns, forensics, and the activities of EMT crews in ambulances.
Writing
Clear prose, but far too long. Implausible plot (I say that having read a lot of thrillers so be warned). Ending in keeping with previous point. Most of the stuff about guns, forensics and ambulances was superfluous.
Bottom line
Meh
