The cover of this debut novel caught my eye and the title intrigued me. I also found the settings, which shift from Atlanta to Washington DC, to be refreshing.

We follow agent Ty Bannister of the FBI as he investigates a major blackmailing of a bottled water company and then as he becomes part of a task force trying to solve serial murders, including that of his best friend. As a character, Bannister is conscientious, hard working and likable.

The author's obvious experience and keen insight into the FBI keeps the action moving and credible. His descriptions place the reader in the middle of every scene. At the beginning I wondered about the dual themed plot; however, it works well and comes together at the end. The action throughout is quick paced, suspenseful and well written. I liked this book and am hoping for a sequel.

This is great novel for anyone who enjoys a good FBI/CIA espionage and criminal thriller. Several plots are skillfully connected. The descriptive details makes you believe you are following FBI Agent Bannister through the streets of Atlanta and Washington, DC. A very enjoyable book which accurately captures the inner workings of an FBI investigation.

I am not usually in to murder mysteries, but this book held my attention and was easy enough to follow without giving away the ending. Nice plot development and interesting characters. I had trouble putting it down once I started reading it.

I loved this book, couldn't put it down and can't wait to read the next one. Ty Bannister is our new hero.

I couldn't put this book down! I don't normally read mysteries or police thrillers. However, after reading what the book was about, I decided to take a chance and can honestly say I was not disappointed. It had a fast moving and believable plot with plenty of action.

Every character came alive through the author's descriptions and carried you right into each scene. Even the backgrounds of the murder victims were well crafted and made you feel saddened at their deaths. The characters and plot were tightly woven. Unlike other books, this one did not leave any loose threads.

This book is good and is a fast read. It would make a great movie.
