And becomes the prey for the bad guys. Through the powerful husband of her best friend, she is paired, unwillingly at first, with tough guy Judd Morgan. Morgan has his own deep dark past and is willing to break rules to do the job. The two are off and running. In other words, this is a standard romantic suspense novel. It is good for trips out of town, airplane rides, or simply escape reading. (  ) slojudy | Sep 8, 2020 |  ) AshleighDJCutler | May 12, 2020 | That sounds pretty typical of your modern day conspiracy thriller, doesn't it? Yes, well, that was my overall impression as well. For the most part I thought this was a pretty predictable and cliche'd story. Lots of overly dramatic dialogue and repetitive use of certain phrases such as "My God!" and "For God's sake!". I don't mind a few of those if appropriate, but way too many in this book to sound natural. Add a wannabe kick-ass female lead character who tries too hard to sound tough, and it's all a bit too much. Had this not been an abridged version on audio, it might've been a little bit better. But then again, maybe not, and perhaps abridged was the way to go to finish it more quickly. I thought I'd read Iris Johansen before, but apparently this was my first one, based on my review history. Based on this one, I'm not overly impressed. (  ) indygo88 | Dec 5, 2018 | Alex Graham a photojournalist accidentally sees something she isn't supposed to.

HTML: #1 New York Times bestselling author Iris Johansen delivers a knockout novel, as an unlikely pair of allies must expose a team of killers hiding behind an unspeakable act of terror—and risk ending up their next target. She witnesses death through the eye of her camera. Now a relentless killer is focused on her. A celebrated photojournalist, Alex Graham has seen it all—but her latest assignment has forced her across a dangerous line. What happens when a reporter does more than just report? She has recorded some of the most tragic and heartbreaking of catastrophes, everything from natural disasters to infamous acts of terror. Her experiences have left her forever marked with the human side of tragedy. So when a dam breaks in Arapahoe Junction, Colorado, Alex is once more at the site doing more than just snapping pictures—she is in the mud with a shovel digging for survivors. What happens when the reporter becomes the story? Alex finds more than she bargained for. In one terrible instant, she is witness to a conspiracy that will stun a nation. The official story is just a cover-up for a truth so frightening, so unthinkable, anyone who threatens to reveal it must be silenced. Forever. And now that someone is Alex Graham. The first attempt on her life is swift and brutal. Only barely escaping, she finds an ally in an improbable source. Billionaire financier John Logan has his own reasons for protecting Alex, and these reasons alone are likely to get her killed. Using his vast connections and influences, Logan assigns a bodyguard to protect her. Judd Morgan is the best covert commando in the business, and if anyone can keep Alex safe, it’s this quietly dangerous man. The problem is, Alex doesn’t want to be kept safe by Judd, whose checkered past has made him the target of an unseen assassin who dogs his every step. “Smoothly written, tightly plotted, turbocharged thriller . . . Johansen doesn’t miss.”—Kirkus Reviews. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
