More Alpha Team awesomeness! Sidney Bristol does it again an action packed, kick-ass story. This time Sidney Bristol whisks you away to the Islamic Nation of Mauritania in Africa. It's in the midst of a civil war, the PPM are trying to overthrow the elected President and make things the way they use to be in the strictest of terms where even slavery isn't a crime. In the midst of it is an American woman, Jackie Davis, and a team of doctors and nurses trying to help free some women and children from their captivity but they go from being the rescuers to being hostage victims. It was suppose to be a simple extraction for the Aegis Alpha Team but things just keep going from bad to worse as the civil war escalates and evidence shows up that it wasn't an accident that got Jackie captured in the first place.
Felix Larson, retired Royal Navy, isn't the one who normally handles the asset but this time he seems to be the only one who can handle the hard headed Jackie who questions every decision and wants to argue every point. Jackie doesn't know why out of all the guys on the team she feels like she can trust the straightforward Felix to tell her the truth and she willingly puts her life into his hands. Jackie doesn't want to wait to see if they make it out alive she wants to be with Felix just in case they don't make it. An action packed story about greed and power and the attempt to overthrow a government. It's not an easy case for any of the Aegis boys this go around and just when things finally seem to start to go there way Jackie discovers something that Felix had been hiding from her and it major enough to ruin their chances at a relationship.
Overall, as always Sidney Bristol does a fantastic job with active setting and emotionally tying you to the characters. I found myself holding my breath at points because of stuff happening to the secondary characters. I'm crossing my fingers at who the next couple is.
