Booklist Reviews : Booklist Reviews 2017 May #1 In the ninth Jonathan Grave thriller, the covert agent specializing in hostage rescue is in Mexico, where he and his partner, Brian "Boxers" Van de Muelebroeke, are hoping to extricate a DEA agent from the clutches of a drug cartel. The rescue goes off relatively smoothly, but everything goes downhill from there: their tactical support vanishes, their chopper flies off without them, and the cartel seems to know exactly where they're hiding. Soon Grave and Boxers are pursued not only by the revenge-seeking drug lord but also by the American government itself. The writing is clumsy, at times, but the book is fast paced and well plotted and should go down well with fans looking mainly for action. Copyright 2017 Booklist Reviews.
