A new author for the blog, recommended by our new fan, a lifelong friend, Cousin Dave who said David Lindsey is his favorite author, so I thought I’d give it a go. That was a good decision. This was a book that I could not put down, even chose to keep reading rather than watch the UConn-AZ BB game. That is saying something. And, I stayed up well past bedtime to finish it. Great plot, great characters, great writing. I am excited that Lindsey has 10 more novels. I am in Cousin Dave’s debt. Hereby violating an unwritten rule of the blog, I have stolen the following review from Lindsey’s website: “Irina Ismaylov kills men and women. But she doesn't kill for pleasure, or for money. She kills at the behest of Sergei Krupatin, a Russian crime lord who exerts a strange and monstrous hold over her. Desperate to escape Krupatin, Irina must first carry out one last mission for him. But her odds of surviving seem impossible. FBI Special Agent Cate Cuevas has just learned of a devastating personal betrayal by her slain husband. Wounded and shaken, she is suddenly plunged into the most challenging and dangerous assignment of her career. The leaders of the three great international crime organizations are planning a secret meeting in Houston. The implications are stunning. The FBI's only chance to stop this ominous alliance depends upon Cate being able to infiltrate the Russian contingent--and get out alive. When Cate and Irina meet, each playing her clandestine role, they discover a mutual and powerful attraction. As the two women fight to survive amidst the intricate and cunning stratagems of violent men, their relationship becomes an ever-more-intimate dance of seduction and murderous intent.”
