This is a good story that kept me engaged to the end. I thought this was an easy read and enjoyed it for the most part. If I had a nit to pick, it would be that there were too many characters to follow for my taste. I found myself repeatedly having to go back to the beginning to re-read the character descriptions, which I am glad was included. Nevertheless I would recommend the book and I'll keep an eye out for the authors work.

A federal agent goes missing, along with a bunch of explosives and detonators. A team of FBI agents is called to Laredo, Texas, to try to uncover what happened. This very realistic scenario is helped by a large supporting cast of characters which can be daunting to keep track of but ultimately is well drawn and full of interesting conflicts and collisions. The plot moves along quickly and the skills of the agents makes for interesting reading.
