Deep Ops #1, Brand new series from Rebecca Zanetti. The Deep Ops or Requisition Force is a new division of Homeland full of misfits and troublemakers, lead by Angus Force and his peculiar GSD, Roscoe. Malcolm West was a detective undercover for a long time burned out and now retired he's ready to just live a quiet life until he meets Pippa his new neighbor and Angus Force offers him a job. Get close to Pippa and find out if she's really a plant from a cult. Force has a source in the cult that says the leader has sent out several woman to act as his angels on judgement day. Mal does it not for Force but for Pippa, there is something about Pippa that draws Mal in that screams she needs protecting. Pippa has been on the run for the last ten years escaped from the cult when she was eighteen now she's a virtual assistant who rarely leaves her house not because she's agoraphobic but because she's scared someone will recognize her and turn her in. The closer Mal gets the deeper his feelings for Pippa get and he knows she's innocent of everything and wants to protect her more than anything but Pippa won't let him.Overall, it was a great start to a new series it's a great introduction to all the quirky characters and one really weird dog who likes to wear and than chew up high heels, munch on lipstick, and hates argyle patterns. Written in third person POV switching from character to character but not too much it mainly focuses on Pippa and Mal. Very intense at parts broken up with the silliness of the secondary characters. I for one can not wait for Wolfe's story and his little kitten. I can understand why Pippa isn't trusting but she gets very aggravating after a while. Mal is great very protective and a little bit damaged I really liked his character.
