Lt. Sam Holland and her partner, Freddie Cruz, are on the scene of a homicide when Government Agents swoop in and whisk Sam away. Without telling her what exactly happened, they take her to an undisclosed location where she finds the rest of her extended family. It seems that there have been credible threats against the Vice President's family, and Nick is taking no chances with their safety. Sam wants to help the FBI find out who is behind the threats. Evidence shows that someone from Sam's past may be involved in helping threaten Sam, Nick, and their family.
I have mixed feelings about this story. I liked the mystery. Sam and her team had to do a lot of digging to figure out who made the threats against her family. I was stunned by the identity of the mastermind. I certainly didn't see that coming.
My problem with the story was Sam's attitude. She will not accept protection from the secret service, even though she is the Second Lady. She seems to think she is invincible. When Nick puts his foot down and says she can't leave the bunker until they have more information, she argues, stomps her foot, and does everything that a spoiled brat would do, including asking her father to pretend to be sick so she could take him to the hospital and "escape" her captivity. Unbelievable. I wish the author would write a more realistic story after making Nick the Vice President. My rating: 3.5 Stars.
