Loved this book. This is number 3 in the NCIS series, and this one does not disappoint. Mel wove a wonderful story that could be true for any family, a man carrying the weight of a heavy guilt on his shoulders, a father seeking revenge for the death of his son, a son trying to protect his father from destroying their relationship and himself. Just an amazing roller coaster ride that was well written and flows rather nicely!
Talk about a complicated father-son relationship.
NCIS's Shel McHenry's father pops up missing and McHenry recruits his fellow teammates to help him figure out what's going on. Turns out a drug ring in Vietnam has a past connection to him and he's running from a potential imprisonment or execution due to an unintended murder. Now NCIS must hunt down the decades-old corpse of the victim to uncover the truth.
Mel Odom is an excellent writer, through and through; he flawlessly injects needed shots of drama in all the right places. Each character's personality shines through, including Shel's God-fearing brother Don, an uplifting dose of religion sparingly added to the grim tale. Odom packs the tale with bushelfuls of adventure and nail-biting suspense that is a rarity in some of today's novels.
