One evening, while cooking a mouth watering crab cake (I love a book with amateur chefs as protagonists...entertaining and occasionally recipe providing) Rogan starts flipping channels to find something other than the State of the Union Address. He is distracted by the President's odd behavior and decides to watch for a while. The President suddenly grabs his secret service agent's weapon and kills his wife. He is immediately arrested (which makes sense) and Bricks is immediately called back to head the investigating team(which doesn't make much sense) in Washington.
The reader is quickly caught up in an investigation that is meant to fail and a shadow government that decides to make sure the truth remains hidden. The book is an exciting one. It stretches the imagination of even the biggest conspiracy buff, but I had no trouble suspending belief for the short time it took me to whip through it. Bricks quickly realizes he can trust very few people, and those he trusts end up dying. He puts James Bond to shame as he dodges bullets and jumps from moving planes, but it is all part of the fun.
I was able to get the Kindle version for $.99 this week on Amazon, and it was worth a great deal more. Check it out on my link and enjoy a few hours of heart racing reading. This is definitely another great Father's Day gift idea.
