Two wounded heroes shattered by tragedy
and paralyzed by guilt and must find their footing and work together to catch a
killer.
A warrant service in the San Bernardino Mountains goes horribly wrong when an
IED blast kills four police officers. Devastated by the loss of her team, the
lone survivor, Long Beach sergeant Jodie King, struggles with her guilt and
grief, especially as the case remains open with no clear leads or suspects.
Weeks after the explosion, Jodie retires from the police department and returns
to the mountain bomb site seeking peace and resolution . . . only to find
herself in the crosshairs once again.
Sam Gresham just happens to be in the right place at the right time when shots
are fired at Jodie. The newest detective for the county sheriff’s department,
Sam is assigned to work the IED, his first case back after his own traumatic
loss. While Sam sees an opportunity to help Jodie heal from her lingering
scars, Jodie hopes fresh eyes will bring new insight to the investigation.
Because after this latest shooting, one thing seems clear: Jodie has always
been the intended target—and the threat may be much closer to her than anyone
wants to admit.
Janice Cantore delivers another pulse-pounding contemporary romantic suspense
novel about overcoming grief and learning to trust again.
My Thoughts:
One Final Target
by Janice Cantore is a police procedural novel filled with many twists and
turns. The plot is predictable and unoriginal. Romance. Someone wanting to hurt
a cop that wants to seek revenge. The difference is that Cantore used her
knowledge of the inner workings of the police force to strengthen the
characters’ personalities. I did enjoy getting to know the heroine and the
hero. They were brave, strong, and determined. Romance is part of the plot, but
honestly, just the way I like it, as a side-note. Not the entire focus of the
couple. A Cantore novel is adventurous, realistic, and filled with danger. This
time around, Cantore showed how computer hacking could ruin someone’s life and
throw the crime scene into a world of hurt. It is scary to think of technology
like this. Overall, One Final Target by Janice Cantore will capture fans’ of
police procedurals and romantic suspense novels. Plenty of action just like
fans of Cantore’s other stories have come to expect.
I received a complimentary copy of One Final
Target by Janice Cantore from Tyndale Publishing, but the opinions stated
are all my own.
My Rating:
4 out of 5 stars
Purchase One Final Target
