By Kelly Bridgewater
There’s a killer on the loose in
Galveston, targeting law enforcement officials and using a fatal injection of
snake venom to take them down. Authorities have reasons to believe the Veneno
gang is behind the hits, and FBI Agents Leah Riesel and Jon Colbert team up to
track down those responsible. Their best lead is an eyewitness who identifies a
young man dumping the third body on a church doorstep. But their suspect has
gone into hiding, and those closest to him are reluctant to reveal anything
that might help investigators find him.
As Leah and Jon check connections among the victims and dig deeper into motives, they discover appearances may be deceiving. Someone is desperate to keep their secrets hidden, and Leah and Jon must face their greatest fears in order to stop the next fatal strike.

My Thoughts:
Fatal Strike by
DiAnn Mills is a predictable, unoriginal tale of drug chasing. From the first
chapter, I had a good idea of how the story would lay out, and I was proven
correct. The characters were flat and had told their story before. I had a hard
time staying focused on the story. I have seen the story before written by a
number of romantic suspense authors. Not that Mills doesn't know how to write;
she does, but I have read this drug chasing and terrorists plots a number of times,
and they are really repetitive and boring. While this story might be just the
right story with plenty of action for some fans of romantic suspense, Fatal Strike did not work for me. I
wanted something a little more original with tons of hair raising moments and
an unpredictable ending. Fans of Irene Hannon and Colleen Coble might be
overjoyed with Fatal Strike, but not
me.
I received a complimentary copy of Fatal Strike by DiAnn Mills from Tyndale Publishing, but the
opinions stated are all my own.
My Rating:
2 out of 5 stars
