Happy Sunday! I hope you’ve had a great weekend with time to relax, have fun, and read a good book 🙂 Lately I’ve been sharing my reviews on Fridays so I can link up with First Line Friday on Hoarding Books. Today isn’t Friday, but I’m going to share the first line of this book anyway, just for fun! Here’s a look at Dark Ambitions by Irene Hannon:
“‘He got away.'”
Dark Ambitions by Irene Hannon
The Basics
Title: Dark Ambitions by Irene Hannon
Series: Code of Honor (Book 3 of 3)
Genre: Christian Romantic Suspense
My Rating: 4/5 Stars
From the Back Cover: Former Army Night Stalker Rick Jordan usually has his camp for foster children to himself during the winter months. But someone has visited recently–leaving a trail of blood. One of the two clues left behind tips Rick off to the identity of his visitor, who soon turns up dead. The police deem it an accident, but Rick isn’t convinced. With the help of private investigator Heather Shields, he sets out to decipher the remaining clue. Except someone doesn’t want them to succeed–and will stop at nothing to keep them from finding the truth.
My Thoughts
This is a great conclusion to Irene Hannon’s Code of Honor series! It’s the third book in the series, and the characters from the first two books do make appearances, but this one can definitely be read as a stand alone. The main characters have unique professions; Heather is a private investigator, and Rick is a former Army Night Stalker turned camp director and private helicopter pilot. The case seems simple at first, but as Heather and Rick look into the death of his friend, they are drawn deeper into a tangled conspiracy with implications that reach farther than they could have imagined. I thought I knew who was behind it all partway through the book, but I was surprised by a twist at the end!
Irene Hannon is definitely a must-read author for fans of romantic suspense, and Dark Ambitions will make a great addition to your TBR!
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. Thank you, Revell!
