Description
A fast-paced thriller from the author of the international bestselling Shepherd series.
The gruesome killing of more than 300 white squatters in a South African village is still unsolved when the alleged assassin enters a storage facility in the US and takes several hostages.
No demands and an obvious play for time leave hostage negotiators on edge. When the FBI is called in, they bring Dr. August Burke, a young man with James Dean looks and a brilliant mind capable of seeing behavioral patterns where others can’t. Unfortunately, Burke hates being around people. Can he put his social anxieties aside and solve the mystery before it's too late?
Together with FBI Special Agent Carter, Burke finds the door to a secret laboratory beneath the storage facility. Is this what the culprits are really after? Soon Burke realizes they are dealing with an enemy who is willing to kill thousands without batting an eye.
Across the globe, Constable Isabel Price picks up her gun and starts the hunt for the killer behind the village massacre, even if that means losing everything. She has no intention on bringing him back alive. Her thirst for revenge leads her to the US, and her path intertwines with the hostage takers.
Between Isabel Price’s quest for bloody vengeance and August Burke’s uneasy gift, Spectrum weaves a web of intrigue and complex characters into an action-packed crime novel.

I received my copy via NetGalley for an honest review.
This booked interested me from the description on NetGalley.
This book is a very clever intermingling of multiple story lines. One one side the cruel, sadistic assassin out to make money to then disappear into the mists.... another side the CIA intent to be able to make as much money from a deal with "terrorist".... then we have the hunter from the past, on the trail to catch the assassin and make him pay..... mixed in with the are the FBI and how they have to handle the situation.
Worlds collide when the assassin changes the plan as far as the CIA saw it.... they need to keep things quiet, but the FBI and SWAT are making so much noise. Then right into the mix comes the hunter from South Africa making even more of a mess of things.
We have intricate plans and very clever character generation throughout. We see this genius level FBI agent (I so much related to him as Reed from Criminal Minds) helping make massive gains in a case, and a SWAT officer causing all the noise they didn't want.
The outcome is very very clever and the name of book finally comes to light as we traverse the stories as they rush to their explosive conclusion.
Very clever and enjoyable book - and indeed I am awaiting then next in the series which is alludes to so much.....
