Book Review: "New Dark" By Brad Thor

Well, Well, Well, what an interesting turn of events ...

You see I've worked like a dog to get a copy of this gem & lady luck was again on my side as Marian Sutherland Kirby Library saved the day with this new release just ten days after publication. So make sure you support your local libraries during these troubling times for curbside pickup reading marathons.


Saved by the bell...now on to the show!


Atria get those ears perked up -no cherry coating here- this was superb!


Sure we have the procedural, tactical, militaristic charm but we also have a new romance and while it's sudden it's just starting to blossom so give this some growing room.


We also have some bad-assery (is that a word?) action that's beyond the mere grenade throwing, sniper shooting, drone flying overhead action.


This was a non stop heart pounding fulfilling read that centers upon a bounty on our main guy of this fab series Scot Harvath- a determined spy-that can't be stopped.


Finding the folks behind this contract is the name of the game and bringing them in -alive- or alive enough till we get answers- is the overall mission.


Teaming up with an unlikely ally proves not only worthy but heated and shows the softer edge of this hardened baller.


Solvi carries her own -just as smart, deadly, with skills that match Harvath's broken past.
Comfort, empathy, nurturing, and communication is key to making this duo indestructible and all powerful.


Staying on top of your game is the ultimate tool for survival as we're all in ..or at least "In for a penny, in for a pound."


Along the way there will be roadblocks, trouble spots, counter intelligence being exchanged with anonymous funding behind the scenes but bitcoin be damned there's more than one way to skin a cat and we all know about Edward Snowden and the spyware being used to easily track anyone, anywhere, anytime.


So watch your damn back, check around corners, keep an eye on those moles (no not those the other ones) and keep your friends close-your enemies closer...


Revenge is sweet...


Believe that!


Thank you Marian Sutherland Kirby Library for this 'New copy' located during pick up of other material at front desk circulation.


SCORE!!


Carry on!
