Review # 1 was written on 2014-07-15 00:00:00 Gaye Conway The whole Naval Justice series was an interesting read but not as good as some other military suspense books I've read. I like the author's writing style. The big issue I have with this third book is that the storyline with Senator Claxton was never really resolved. She was a major part of the story and there is a big ordeal to move Zach so she can't have him killed; so to end her part of the story by saying Wendy beat her in court is a major let-down that left a bunch of loose ends. Why was Jackson killed? Could he really trust Mary-Latham with his secret? Who the heck is Mohammed really? I so thought the fact that he was Arabic would somehow tie him to the Council of Ishmael, but apparently it was just coincidence. Also I don't understand why it was never confirmed until the very end of the book that the woman held in captivity in Mongolia really was Diane. There really was no mystery as to who the captive was.

Review # 2 was written on 2017-09-16 00:00:00 Donald Peck I thought this book was very realistic, and while it is #3 in its series I enjoyed it more than the first two (and I liked the first two). It weaves a tale of today's issues concerning radical Islamic terrorists and its specific threat to America. The book has a believable plot and conclusion, excellent character development, and doesn't leave you thinking the author is trying to weave in a bunch of b.s. I would compare this author with all of the "big name" authors who are recognized for action thrillers such as Vince Flynn and Lee Child. This book is one of those you just don't want to put down. This certainly changes my previous stereotype of Zondervan fiction! Looking forward to starting #4 soon.
