A well written and well thought out conspiracy thriller, set in DC. The characters are well developed and the setting and plot are realistic. If you enjoy political thrillers, I think that you would Flash Point. This e-book was made available by NetGallery in exchange for an unbiased review.

A solid political tale with strong characters, an interesting premise, and a nicely executed story. This seems quite timely which adds to its appeal. Recommended and engaging.

I really appreciate the review copy!!

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

This story is about Eric Anderson, a videographer, who has his own web blog. Through his girlfriend, Sarah, he meets Adam who helps him get a job with the Senator from Georgia. Eric believes that this will provide him with an in to get information that will help his blog. Ultimately he winds up being a pawn for the Senator who has plans to bring a bioresearch facility to his home state. To help accomplish this, he sends Eric to a mall to get dirt on another Senator also trying to get the facility. While there, a mass shooting takes place with Eric filming the entire event and also helping a shopper who was in the store.

This shooting was a red herring and once Eric discovered it, he worked to expose the actions that politicians would stoop so low to murder and injure individuals to get their way. Eric gather information and was about ready to release it when he was discovered. At that time, the team responsible for the event attempted to stop him.

To find out whether Eric was successful and what steps were taken to prevent his release of the information, then you must read this book. You won't be disappointed.

This book struck me as so much nonsense. I didn't care for it at all. We are told in the synopsis that the novel "transcends the typical conspiracy thriller. By illuminating the post-truth, conspiracy culture zeitgeist in shocking and subversive ways, FLASH POINT holds a mirror to the national psyche that issues a provocative challenge:"
What does that even mean? This book just isn't for me.
