Review: Final Dawn by DV Berkom

 

Genre: Thriller

Description:

“When a messianic terrorist puts a target on the federal justice system, elite operator Mackenzie ‘Mac’ Reynolds is all that stands between order and total chaos.

Mac Reynolds knows how to read a room, spot a threat, and keep a client alive. What she doesn’t know is how to protect a federal judge when a domestic terror campaign begins and every layer of security starts to crack.

Victor Hale has activated sleeper cells, breached government networks, and turned the Pacific Northwest into a blood-soaked battlefield. But for Mac, the nightmare becomes deeply personal when her mentor and her father suddenly vanish—straight into Hale’s trap.”

Appraisal:

If you’ve read the first two books in this series then you know what the protagonist of the trilogy, Mackenzie Reynolds, Mac for short, is up against and the stakes. If she doesn’t stop Victor Hale and his minions it won’t be good for anyone, no matter what some of his followers are deluded enough to think. Not to mention the much more personal things at stake with her father being at extreme risk. I wasn’t sure how this was going to shake out which kept me turning pages, eager to see how it worked out. Long time DV Berkom fans are going to have an unanticipated character show up to help out, which just made this that much better for me. As always with DV Berkom’s books, we’ve got strong female characters with an extremely engaging story.

FYI:

This is the end of a trilogy. While you could probably follow the story in this book without having read the first two books in the trilogy, to get a full sense of this book I’d advise not doing that, instead reading all three books in order.
