Colter Shaw, reward seeker and professional tracker, is in San Francisco on a personal case in his third adventure. Based on a map and a detailed letter from his murdered father, Colter is searching for a piece of evidence that could destroy the nefarious company BlackBridge. Dealing in everything from corporate espionage to “gerrymandering by narcotics,” BlackBridge is responsible for a multitude of deaths, including that of Colter’s father. When initial clues lead Colter to the Stanford Library of Business and Commerce, he is met by Droon and Braxton, his violent adversaries from the previous books. The action intensifies when Colter accidentally stumbles upon a kill order for an unnamed family that is facing certain execution; he only has two days to save them. With the clock ticking and a wholly unexpected partner emerging from his past, Colter must secure the evidence and protect those he loves from ruthless enemies.
VERDICT With its plot picking up immediately after the action of The Goodbye Man, this book will be most appreciated by those who have read the previous entries. Colter’s past and his complicated family all feature prominently, adding a rich and compelling layer in this worthy addition to the series.
