“The Raid” is the second book in the Ryan Decker series, and it does not disappoint. Our favorite characters are back, with Ryan on another mission that involves the Mexican drug cartels and shady elements within the US government. The action is non-stop (if not a little over the top), as Decker and his crew wage battle. No surprises here, just a good action thriller. Great, likeable characters, evil wrongdoers, and more than enough action to support the plot, which is not overly complicated like some other novels in this genre. Definitely looking forward to more in this series, which is now a must-read for me. This ARC was provided by the publisher via @NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I loved this book! The only reason I gave this book 5 stars was because I couldn’t give it 10 stars..This book had everything, including Cowboys and Indians, metaphorically speaking.It also had the “ Wow” factor, which means that I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.I will look forward to reading his next book.

Former CIA operative Ryan Decker is back. Called to help with a delicate situation at the US-Mexico border, he finds that situation is much more involved than what appears on the surface. Once again, in this second book in the series, he doesn’t know who can be trusted. Relying on his own exceptional skills seems to be the best course.
