I received this book through the Read Now program on NetGalley.

Ryan Decker and Pam had just been on a simple surveillance when it erupted into a shootout. Because of that, both Ryan wound up on restricted duty. The team receives a call from Senator Steele who makes a request that they check out the disappearance of the son of one of the Senator's friends. The last location for him was the place identified as the Mountain where a lot of marijuana plants were being grown.

Pam and Ryan went to check into the disappearance and their vist to the Mountain raised some feathers. Ryan and Pam received a visit from members of the wolfpack who attempted to kill them. Pam was heavily wounded and only action by Ryan ultimately saved her. It took awhile before Ryan's team mates became aware of the situation, but once hey learned about it, they sent a group to look into the situation. Once they arrived, they were able to get co-operation from the Sheriff, things started to progress.

The group overseeing the marijuana operation had big plans and they needed to make sure that they were able to transport the plants to another location for processing. Ryan and the rest of the team, in addition to the Sheriff's department were able to force the group off of the Mountain to the other location where there was a plan in place that would ultimately wind uo with an attack occurring.

If you want to find out what group was involved in the marijuana operation and how Ryan's group fared, then you will need to read the book which I recommend highly.

#3 from Decker and it is sort of a stand alone but the other two will fill in gaps

I like the story but the WS Cabal seems to be the 'safe' bad guys these days

Still back guys, a politicians son, and you can expect a high body count

Entertaining

Good dialogue, and storyline. Action scenes very well done. Not his best work but I will look forward to his next book

Another awesome Ryan Decker book!
Hired once again by Senator Steele, this time to find the missing son of her long time friend, Decker and his team get into more than they bargained for. While searching for the boy, they stumble upon a billion dollar crop of marijuana. The men financing the drug business are not going to close up and surrender without the fight of their lives.
This book had everything you would expect from a Steven Konkoly novel, drugs, gun fights, bombs and lots of of fast paced action. Great addition to this series.
I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Ryan Decker is back in this third installment in the series, and the action and body count is higher than ever. Decker and his crew are tasked with investigating the disappearance of the son of a friend of Senator Steele, their group’s benefactor. The investigation leads to a multi-billion dollar marijuana operation, and in true Decker fashion, everything soon goes to hell. Another great story in the series, lots of action, and as usual really over the top gun battles, but fans will be extremely pleased with the action in this one, and the ending sets up the next book, which is great to see. Another win in a highly entertaining series. I received an ARC of this book from the publisher through @NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This book is the third in the Ryan Decker series. Though it isn't required to read the first two books in the series, I seriously don't know why you wouldn't.

Someone disappearing on Murder Mountain isn't exactly news. Reports of missing persons come in through each grow season, their numbers inflated because most people don't call back and report their loved ones found once the season ends. But when Senator Steele calls our favorite band of misfits, they investigate.

Brett Hale is missing, and his mother and Senator Steele go way back. It's no stretch to imagine, she's calling in a favor. Decker and his band of misfit toys strap in for a trip to Northern California to investigate in Humboldt County; a place even local law enforcement typically skirts.

Decker is currently benched, after misbehaving during a recent case, so the investigation is better than sitting behind a desk. What sounds like a simple missing person's case turns into something more nefarious, as it only can when Ryan Decker is involved.

The Mountain does a deep dive into the illegal marijuana grow industry in Humboldt County and gives us a deeper look into Decker and crew as people and operators. There's an almost unmentionable amount of romance, a lot of humor, and plenty of ways for people to be offended.

It's rumored Konkoly was asked to 'tone down' his prodigious use of 'foul language', after receiving negative reviews for The Rescue. He's done a fantastic job of toning things down to appease those easily offended, while keeping it real enough for those of us who aren't truly civilians.

This novel is an action packed thriller, featuring technical information on gun specs, military jargon, and special operations. If any of those things offend you, this isn't the book for you. If you're like me, and have lived and breathed this life since diapers, you'll enjoy the camaraderie Konkoly shows us between the mercs and likely recognize someone you know and love.

Konkoly is a master of his craft, and I can't wait for more.
