Irene Hannon In Harm's Way

When it comes to novels you want to read, what is it you are looking for: fast paced action, good characters you can identify with and get emotionally invested in, maybe a good mystery with a few plot twists and turns, a good romance story thrown in, humor, a really good ending? Well I must say that the third and final installment to the Heroes of Quantico trilogy has that and much more.
Am I bummed that the series is wrapped up? Yes, without a doubt. I have been sharing the novels with my wife and it has been a blast to be able to discuss them with her. The series started with Against All Odds ( We featured it Sunday in our Blast From The Past; check our archives). Number 2 was An Eye For an Eye and that gets us to the third and final, In Harm’s Way. Hannon will be starting a new series in early 2011. I am looking forward to that, and the knowledge of it has buoyed my spirits as I have become a big fan of her style and storylines. The new series is called Guardians of Justice and the first novel is titled Fatal Judgment.
Without giving up any spoilers here is the skinny on the storyline from the jacket of the novel; “ FBI Special Agent Nick Bradley has seen his share of kooks during his fifteen years with the Bureau. But Rachel Sutton is an enigma. She seems normal when she shows up at his office- until she produces a tattered Raggedy Ann doll and tells him about a strange feeling of terror it gives her when she touches it. Nick dismisses her, only to stumble across a link between the doll and an abducted child, setting in motion a chain of events that uncovers startling connections- and puts Rachel’s life on the line.”
Irene Hannon’s final installment is the best of the series, bringing to bear all that the first two had and much more. Elements of romance, suspense, Christian beliefs, humor, and lots of action are an unusual combination. Hannon manages to pull it off and in spades. I suggest this novel for all the right reasons. She is a Goodreads author, let her know you are out there and put all three novels in your –to read- list at the very least, enjoy them and the ride along with a standup group of characters from the elite FBI Hostage Rescue Team.
