A random rookie attorney, an infamous German assassin, a political reporter, and the CIA.  What was the thread that tied the puzzle all together?  Sam Callahan is the only one that can solve the puzzle, but he has to get out of Mexico with no passport or money, go to New Orleans to find a man who may be tied to his past, and save his kidnapped girlfriend in D.C., all while trying to escape an assassin’s bullet.

Even though I did not read Mr. Zunker’s first book in the Sam Callahan Series, his second book stands on its own.  His plot descriptions are so vivid and engaging that I felt like I was watching a film.  In addition, the main characters to the supporting characters are very diverse and well-defined.  I relished this fast-paced and thrilling story and will definitely recommend it to friends.  I look forward to more books in this series.

Thank you to Mr. Zunker, NetGalley and Thomas and Mercer Publishing for giving me the opportunity to review this book.
