I always enjoy reading Rachel stories.
I look forward to the next episode.
Thanks Lee
It opens with a presidential assassination attempt.
Then, feeling that she has bargaining power in spite of their last interaction (she does), Rachel West extracts concessions from the CIA Deputy Director, Alex Miller, himself. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. Next, Miller makes a revelation of immense proportions. There are sinister activities going on at the CIA, the FBI, and the White House: moles and leaks yet to be identified on a mission which Rachel must keep secret.
Miller sanctions her to terminate with extreme prejudice.
And that's just the beginning.
What follows is Rachel West's trial by fire in more ways than one. She's also trying to keep her relationship going with J.T. Ryan, who's done the right thing by giving her a ring. Although they're both eager, they agree to talk about that later.
Rachel discovers that someone was giving inside information to a smooth foreign operative. When Rachel confronts the spy, things go bad and Rachel kills the man.
Then two more assassination attempts take place, one inside the White House residence itself. To make things more complicated, the Secret Service can’t be trusted.
When J.T. Ryan is kidnapped in order to get a stunning concession from West, it becomes personal.
Gimenez reveals the person behind the attempts: Bella, a woman with plenty of resources. Bella's activities are financed by a very rich husband who has partners not known to Bella. Bella has her own, layered life, which tells us that she's no cutout villain from central casting. She's also very afraid to fail, and for a very good reason.
A co-conspirator is very high up in D.C. and has ambitions of his own, so the antagonistic forces appear unstoppable. Except for one thing, Rachel West is on the case.
West herself has a proclivity to want to emasculate the bad actors, which tells us about something dark in her character, Medal of Honor notwithstanding. She also likes her vodka.
Lee Gimenez has delivered a top tier political thriller about the highest levels of Washington D.C., which takes place behind the scenes with international players and global consequences. The story takes us all the way to the Vatican.
Rachel West is definitely a female Jack Reacher. Killshot is for Tom Clancy fans of crisis-driven, adrenaline-fueled novels. Highly recommended.
