Publisher Description
When the First Lady is kidnapped, a rescue specialist discovers her secrets—and a deadly conspiracy—in a thriller by the New York Times bestselling author.
First Lady Anna Darmond’s penchant for late night parties in South East D.C. is a harmless open secret—until she’s kidnapped out from under the noses of her Secret Service agents in a bloody gunfight. It's an unthinkable crime that, if revealed, could cause public panic. That’s why hostage rescue specialist Jonathan Grave and his team must operate in absolute secrecy.
But Grave soon realizes that, extraordinary as it is, the mission is not all it seems. There are shadows in Mrs. Darmond's past, cracks in the presidential marriage—and leaks in the country's critical shields of security. As Grave tracks the missing First Lady through a labyrinth of lies and murder, he confronts a traitor at the highest level of Washington power—and a devastating scheme to bring a nation to its knees.
Customer Reviews
Fun to read, so many typos
A good read. Plot twists keep you interested and entertained. Editor is terrible - so, so many typos. Every John Gilstrap book I’ve read in this series is also riddled with typos. Easily fixed if the author wants to fix or get a new editor. I will keep writing these reviews for each book.
Not the best in the Grave series
I have read and thoroughly enjoyed several of Gilstrap's books recently. This, sadly, was the least favorite. I felt the dialogue was clunky, especially in the middle of the book, and elements of the plot were reaching way past the norms for this type of thriller.
This being said, it still earned three stars for delivering action and I will try another book by this author.
