The story is cute and funny , but the narrators make it spectacular!
Rating: 5Another double story with some old favorite characters. I thought the Washington DC story made sense and kept me wondering. The other part, in Maestro, was just a bit too outlandish for me to accept, the characters too much of caricatures. I'm wondering if the last few books haven't been introducing too many people too quickly. I'm missing a certain depth in their development. But it's a fun outing, anyway, with Savich and Sherlock.
Rating: 4I won this print from Goodreads and agreed to give it an honest review. This is my first time reviewing Ms. Coulter and I hope to review many more! FBI Agent Griffin Hammersmith was recruited by Dillon Savich to join his unit in Washington as he saw something special in him. Griffin had plans to visit his sister who is a student at Stanislaus School of Music in Maestro, Virginia, but before he can get there he gets a call that Delsey had been attacked and is in the hospital. Delsey has always been a trouble magnet and she was the butt of the family joke that she couldn't stay out of trouble even if she did the right thing. Once at the hospital after he saw that she was asleep, he decided to get some answers as to who attacked her and whose blood was in her bath tub! Unknown to him, Savich had his own problem as he sought why a young boy was found naked at the stairs of Lincoln's Memorial, frozen on the ground, and beaten to death !!
Rating: 5The book was just as good as all of the others. It had 2 story lines to follow, so you need to read the chapter headings to see where you are. Some interesting twists at the end. I had a feeling that it was leading up to another book at the very end. Sure enough there was a teaser for the The Final Cut at the end. Glad I have it and will read it soon. I couldn't wait for the paperback version of Bomb Sheel, so my wrists got tired before I finished it. Unfortunately the same is true for The Final Cut.
Rating: 5On his way to a new posting with Dillon and Savich at the Washington D.C. unit, Agent Griffin Hammersmith is shocked to hear that his sister's been attacked and is in the hospital with amnesia. Rushing to her side he learns that she's somehow made herself a target of a drug ring. Dillon and Savich have their hands full with a murdered teen dumped at the Lincoln Memorial.With the typical number of cameos by couples and characters from past books, this is another typical love at first sight romance in a suspense wrapper from Coulter. It's not bad, exactly, if you don't mind that all of her characters share exactly the same mannerisms and speech patterns, and after a while the dialogue is pretty predictable. The bad guys are easy to spot, and the ending is happily ever after but that's really sort of the point, right?
Rating: 3Another great Sherlock and Savich mystery. The famous FBI agent couple is trying to solve the murder of the grandson of a prominent DC couple. Some think the death is revenge for the financial collapse—the grandfather was in a position to stop/ease this. The agents are not sure. Then, there are more deaths, possibly murders of the dead person’s friends. How do they ever figure this one out? In a parallel story, Agent Hammersmith is en route to a new assignment working for Dillon Savich, when he learns his sister has been injured during what looks like it might be a break-in gone wrong. Again, there is more to this incident, and the agent, assisted by local police and other agents, must figure out what exactly is going on and put a stop to it all. The author has once again taken the reader into the mind and lives of two of mysteries best loved agents, Sherlock and Savich. The book is filled with characters the reader met in earlier books, and, since there is little back feed on them, it helps to know what came before. Still, the reader can understand the story without this previous understanding of the characters. This is a quick, easy read, as the author consistently has a smooth, easy style. Savich and Sherlock are at their best. The other characters compliment this couple and the cases well. However, I wondered, as I read, whether the author has reached a point where she cannot write more about the characters and their lives as agents. Perhaps this is why she is launching a second investigative series in the very near future.
Rating: 4Special Agent Griffin Hammersmith of the FBI has just accepted a transfer from San Francisco to Washington DC to work under Special Agent Dillon Savich of the FBI’s CAU division. We first met Griffin in Backfire, with that story happening just a couple of weeks ago. He’s just arrived in the area and was going to stop and see his sister Delsey, when he gets a call from Agent Ruth Noble (Point Blank) saying his sister survived an attack. Apparently she’s a witness to something huge. At the same time Savich and his Special Agent wife, Sherlock, are dealing with the very public death of the grandson of a former chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank. The two are completely separate investigations, but the people involved in the investigations overlap and the story is told from a number of angles.If you haven’t read some of the prior books in this series you will probably have a harder time appreciating a number of characters; many of whom had been showcased as the ‘couple du jour’ in prior books. There isn’t a great deal of backfill given. I suggest starting with either The Cove or even The Maze. Each book in the series carries two investigations and Savich and Sherlock are in every book with a new couple introduced in each.But for readers of this series, most will appreciate seeing so many familiar characters again along with some new interesting ones. Griffin is one-half this story’s couple du jour and we might be seeing a second one advance in the future. The author’s wit is evident throughout, as are dangerous situations.
Rating: 4Delsey Freestone , sister to FBI Special Agent Griffin Hammersmith and a student at the prestigious Stanislaus School of Music in Maestro, Virginia regretting her night out with Professor Salazar and too many margaritas...Delsey vows to never to get herself in this predictment again and heads home to recover. Soon the situation starts to turn bizarre with Delsey screaming, her neighbor calling 911 and before we know it Sheriff Dix Noble and his wife FBI Special Agent Ruth Warnecki-Noble are right in the middle of the new bizarre situation.
Meanwhile FBI Special Agent Dillon Savich and his beautiful FBI Special Agent wife Sherlock are trying to unravel another mystery of frozen body left posed at the foot of the Lincoln Memorial. Before Dillon and Sherlock realize it they are involved in the mess in Maestro.
Another great story with our favorite players FBI Special Agents Dillon & Sherlock Savage; Ruth Warnecki-Noble & her new husband Sheriff Dix Noble, Griffin Hammersmith and many others that you will soon recognize. The story line is full of mystery, conspiracy and intrigue as you try to puzzle out the players involved in the relatively small unassuming town of Maestro, Virginia.
This book starts out slowly, with lots of information gathering. But it's all vital to the outcome. It ends with a bang. Both cases coming together at the same time, with lots of action, suspense and a few twists along the way.

I've always found it interesting how these books can follow two stories and still be so easily read. It's not confusing or bogged down. Savich and Sherlock are dealing with the death of a twenty year old placed at the Lincoln Memorial. griffin is teamed up with Sheriff Dix Noble and Agent Ruth Noble to figure out who was in Delsey's house. I have always liked Savich and Sherlock, their relationship is very believable and normal (well considering they are FBI Agents.) Griffin is a newer character to the series, but I'm already starting to like him. All of Coulter's characters are well developed and enjoyable to read about.
The two cases that you go back and forth between in this book are interesting. I enjoyed the flipping between because you never really got bored with one storyline. As I was reading I had guessed a few of the smaller details in the cases, but both cases left me wondering until the end. But then I don't really try to figure them out before your supposed to know, cause then what is the point of finishing the book. This is a nice Suspense Thriller, it doesn't hurt that it has all kinds of nice looking FBI Agents in it.

Only read the first 100 pages. Don't like the characters or the plot!
