When eighteen-year-old Elise Hunt was released after three years in juvenile detention, FBI Agent Lucy Kincaid knew it was only a matter of time before the psychopath would pop up again. It only took three weeks. Elise has a plan for revenge against Lucy and anyone who had a hand in bringing down Elise's family. First Lucy's husband, Sean Rogan, is questioned about a murder of a known prostitute and eventually arrested. Lucy knows her husband is innocent, but she is not allowed to be involved in the investigation. As she calls in favors, Lucy learns that her partner Nate Dunning is being questioned concerning drugs in his vehicle; Sean's brother Kane is missing in Mexico; and DEA Agent Brad Donnelly was kidnapped outside of his office building. Lucy knows Elise is behind everything, but she couldn't have planned this alone. Who else wants to bring down Lucy and her friends?

The 17th book in the Lucy Kincaid series is one of the best. It was so hard to set the book down and go to bed. The story is fast paced with lots of twists and turns. Some of the scenes are intense. I found myself sitting on the edge of my seat. And I found it very frustrating when some of the law enforcement officers would not take Lucy's theories seriously.

Many characters from past books are back to help with the investigation. I loved seeing Patrick, Jack, Megan, Brad, and Kate back in the mix. Some people complain about the number of characters in this book and how hard it was to keep track of them. I just have to say that you shouldn't start a new series with book #17. You'll be lost. Start with the first book. You won't be disappointed. My rating: 5 Stars.
