"The next high-octane thriller in the FBI series featuring Dillon Savich and Lacey Sherlock from # 1 New York Times-bestselling author Catherine Coulter. When Special Agent Lacey Sherlock foils a terrorist attack at JFK airport, she thinks her job is done and turns the reins over to the New York FBI. But stopping the grenade-carrying crazy was only the beginning. Another plot unfolds nearly simultaneously with a bomb at St. Patrick's Cathedral. The terrorist at JFK refuses to speak to anyone but Sherlock. She heads back with counterterrorist Special Agent Cal McLain to try to get him to talk. Meanwhile, Savich--with the help of Agent Griffin Hammersmith--has his hands full trying to track an elusive murderer who looks like a Hollywood Dracula. When Dracula's attempts to kill Savich collide with Sherlock's terrorist case, very strange things happen. Who is really behind the bombing attack at St. Patrick's? How does Savich's mysterious killer fit into Sherlock's terrorism investigation? Savich and Sherlock race against the clock, as more lives are in danger with every passing minute"--… (more)

Savich and Sherlock split up in the story. Sherlock walked into a terrorist plot started at the New York Airport while Savich investigated multiple murders that led him to a small town.

Book 19 ...
After reading this series, I have gotten to know the characters and, as always, enjoyed the new team members and the local Leo's. The drawback to reading these stories in order is that I remember Blessed. How can Savich be so dismissive of someone being able to control others after Blessed. I love this series, but that kind of bugged me in this one. ( )

Synopsis: 'When Special Agent Lacey Sherlock foils a terrorist attack at JFK Airport, she thinks her job is done and turns the reins over to the New York FBI. But stopping the grenade-carrying crazy at the airport was only the beginning, as another plot unfolds soon after at St Patrick's Cathedral, where a bomb threat sets off a major panic in midtown Manhattan. When the terrorist at JFK refuses to speak to anyone but Sherlock, she heads back with counter-terrorist Special Agent Cal McClain to try to get him to talk. What she learns is terrifying.
Meanwhile, Dillion Savich - with the help of Agent Griffin Hammersmith - has his hands full trying to track a killer who uses others to unwittingly do his bidding. But a mistake draws Savich to a house of Wiccans, and he knows one of them is the puppet master. But which one? When there are attempts on his life and Hammersmith's, he knows he has to figure this out fast, but how?
Who is really behind the bombing attacks at JFK and St. Patrick's? Terrorists? Or does it go much deeper?
Both Savich and Sherlock race against the clock, as more lives are in danger and only they can halt the madness.
And just who is Nemesis?
Review: Dreadful editing!! Although the story line is quite interesting, this feels forced since Savich and Sherlock are not together. ( )

I really enjoy these Savich and Sherlock thrillers by Catherine Coulter. They always have fast-paced adventure, and a great set of mysteries to work out.

In this one, Sherlock is at the airport when someone threatens to set off a grenade. Somewhere else in the city, a bomb is found in a church. Are the two terrorist events related, and are they also related to a set of mysterious killings with Wiccan knives, where the killers seem to have no memory of what they've done?

I appreciate the research and techincal precision that must go into writing each of these novels in the series. The detail work and sense of authenticity makes her one of my favorite thriller writers. 4.5/5 stars.

Please excuse typos/name misspellings. Entered on screen reader. ( )

Coulter puts Savich and Sherlock into another great book....fast to read, full of action as, usually, two stories overlap in these books. I have many more of Coulter's books to read about these two ---there are an amazing number and I doubt if any reader gets tired of them. Definitely a great series. ( )

This series has been one that I have followed since it started. I really enjoyed the first books that centered on Savich and Sherlock and their cases. As the series went on more and more characters have been introduced with Savich and Sherlock often being supporting characters. This book has them back in the limelight with two separate cases. Sherlock, being in the right place at the wrong time, thwarts a terrorist attack and is pulled in to help with the investigation into the kingpin of the event and another that follows. I enjoyed this storyline and the investigation that went with it. Savich was involved in a separate storyline involving some paranormal activities and mind control. This plotline was not as interesting to me. There has always been some paranormal/supernatural aspects to the stories, but for some reason, this one did not speak to me. I will read the next one I have to see if I enjoy this story as much as others in the past. ( )
