This is the third and final book in the American Ghost series, and it’s quite a ride. Nathan Stone is a unique man with a very unique skill set. He was trained to be the best assassin out there, doing his work silently and slipping into the shadows. But he wised up to what his handlers were doing and went rogue. Since then, he’s been on the run while still keeping up with his sister to make sure the bad guys haven’t found her.
Maybe it was the location. Maybe it was just because I had a pretty good idea of what to expect out of Stone at this point. Whatever the reason, this was the best book in the trilogy for me. When Stone realizes he’s being set up in a Honey Pot operation, he grabs the girl and runs. Now he realizes he can’t let the girl go–they’ll kill her in an instant. If she’s lucky. Stone and the Hollywood Bimbo wanna-be-starlet slog their way through the Florida Everglades in chapters I could completely picture. Jeez, what a hoot.
Fans of J.B. Turner (of whom there are many) as well as fans of political thrillers, spy-vs-spy, and street justice stories will enjoy the Nathan Stone, American Ghost series.
