END GAME

When elite members of the military are murdered on the streets of Washington, DC, FBI Special Agent Bailey Ryan and NCIS Special Agent Marco Agostini must work together to bring the perpetrator to justice. Unfortunately, all evidence points to a Navy SEAL sniper whom Bailey refuses to believe is guilty.

When Bailey and Marco start to connect the dots between the victims, including a link to a powerful defense contractor, they wonder if there's a deeper cover-up at play. Then Bailey is targeted, and it becomes clear that someone is willing ti kill to keep their dark secrets.

With the stakes getting higher by the moment in a twisted conspiracy, there's a rush against the clock to determine whom they can really trust. As allies turn to enemies, the biggest secret yet to be uncovered could be the end of all of them.

My Review:

Seriously, seriously, seriously love this dialogue driven police procedural. It felt like I was watching one of my fave TV shows -- NCIS. One of the episodes where multliple agencies have to learn to play nice with each other. And it's a doozy of a case -- multiple layers that, when pulled back, reveal even more unanswered questions. 

And I love the way the author propels her readers through the investigation, piecing together clues and trying to make sense out of chaos right along with the team. I feel like I've earned the right to be called Rookie now. :-)

End Game is the perfect introduction to the Capital Intrigue series which features three law school friends who have high powered jobs in DC. This time round it's FBI Agent Bailey who gets to shine as she battles an intriguing case and soon crosses paths with NCIS Special Agent Marco. Whew -- and let the games begin as these two grow close as they work an impossibly complicated case. 

They don't have time for distractions and yet...Love that the romance isn't overshadowed by the suspense. The relationship grows realistically -- this isn't a case of insta-love (though I appreciate a good insta romance as well as the next avid reader), but rather a gradual warming from wary collaborators to respected colleagues to genuine friendship. And then the flirting begins. Oh my! Cue the toe curls and happy sighs.

This one ticks all my armchair sleuthing boxes -- cleverly developed suspense with lots of action and danger paired with a solid romance and great team building. I'm already eyeball deep into Backlash (book two) and loving it just as much!
