FBI agent Declan Grey is in the chase of his life–but isn’t sure exactly what he’s chasing after. Threatened by a terrorist that “the wrath is coming,” Grey fears something horrible is about to be unleashed on American soil. When his investigation leads him to a closed immigrant community, he turns to Tanner Shaw to help him. She’s sought justice for refugees and the hurting around the world, and if there’s anyone who can help him, it’s Tanner.
Tanner Shaw has joined the FBI as a crisis counselor . . . meaning she now has more opportunity to butt heads with Declan. But that tension also includes a spark she can’t deny, and she’s pretty sure Declan feels the same. But before anything can develop between them, they discover evidence of a terror cell–and soon are in a race against the clock to stop the coming “wrath” that could cost thousands their lives.
Don’t start Blind Spot unless you have at least four free hours, because once you pick it up, you won’t put it down until you’ve turned the last page! Pettrey has outdone herself in this latest book in the Chesapeake Valor series.
Pettrey ups the game by introducing a heretofore-unknown character, and his actions not only move the plot along, but kick it out of the park. Blind Spot has the absolute best cliffhanger ending. I’ve never heard more readers asking impatiently for the release date of the next book, and I am right there with them! (The next book will release in July, in case you’re wondering. I’ve already made a note on my calendar.)
I love the way that the various plots throughout the books begin to come together in Blind Spot. Background characters take a bigger role as the stakes get higher with each plot. Revisiting the main characters from the previous two books feels … friendly? reassuring? as if you’re catching up with an old friend, and I love that part of this series – that you can see older characters’ plots and lives advance.
After turning the last page, I stewed for a day or so, frustrated at having to wait so. very. long. for the next installment in the story, and then I handed the book to my husband, who had read the first two. He’s not generally a reader, and the kids usually yell, “Whoa! Daddy’s reading!” whenever he does pick up a book, so you know that it’s a rarity in this house of bibliophiles. After starting Blind Spot, though, we didn’t really see him for about three days after that – until he had finished the book.
If suspense stories are your cup of tea, this is definitely a book you need to have on your shelf.
I received a free copy of this book to review. All opinions are my own.
