What a wild ride!
I was bogged down a little at the halfway mark not liking the government drones. Persevere, dear reader, it is worth wading through the government alphabet to experience the second half of the book.

Great book - I loved the twists and turns in international terrorism and interaction with the CIA and Homeland Security. Characters were well developed. The only criticism I have is that Jeri could have been portrayed as more intelligent through the book. She obviously had a lot on the ball, but I would have liked to have seen a bit development of her porsonality and character through the book. I never knew which way it was going until the very end. I'm looking forward to the next in the series.

Jeri Halston should be working on Wall Street, not in a forgotten old bar in Flagstaff. But the brilliant, gorgeous twenty-six-year-old prefers bartending at Joe’s Last Stand Saloon to climbing the corporate ladder. When Jeri starts receiving love letters from an anonymous admirer, she’s amused by their far-flung postmarks and coy Polaroids that never quite show the writer’s face. Their postscripts are even more intriguing: “Don't order dog.” Hilarious but harmless, the letters don’t raise any red flags to Jeri—until a hyper-vigilant homeland security agent discovers that the letters are originating from places where the world’s top energy researchers keep turning up dead.
As the mailed missives turn from tame to threatening, Jeri realizes that her nameless, faceless pen pal just might have dragged her into an international terrorism plot. And there’s no marking “Return to Sender” on this nightmare.
My review:
In the beginning this book was a wonderful mixture of twists and turns, to the extent that I had to keep my wits about me with all the characters involved. It was building up to a wonderful ending.... and then it fell flat. The story line made you expect an explosive finish, but truth be told it was a bit unsatisfying... as if the author was sitting with a hot potato end had no idea what to do with it. But seeing as this is the first in a series, maybe this is the cliffhanger. Who knows maybe book 2 will end better… (mais)
