In 1944, Texas Ranger Jim Strong became caught up in an
ominous murder investigation involving prisoners in a Nazi
POW camp. The killer was never caught.
In the present, Texas Ranger Caitlin Strong, Jim's daughter,
is dealing with repercussions of WWII history in the form of
a neo-Nazi gang in her area. Led by the malevolent Armand
Fisker, this wickedly well-trained army has amassed a deadly
arsenal of bio-weapons with far-reaching plans for its use.
When Cort Wesley Masters' son crosses paths with Fisker's
son and his group of evil minions, the results turn into
all-out war involving everyone. But Caitlin is also working
on another important case that has ties to her past.
Eighteen years ago, a terrible thing happened to Caitlin
that was never resolved. Now, it's come back to smack her in
the face when she least expects it. The DNA from her case
matches that of a current sexual assault case. As she
investigates, Caitlin comes to realize that every criminal
she's come across has turned into the man from her past, who
was never caught. Has she been using her Ranger badge as a
defense mechanism? As she faces her demons, finally gaining
justice, she must also keep her loved ones safe while
dealing with the madman Fisker. The explosive ending is pure
Caitlin Strong strategy.
Jon Land's STRONG TO THE BONE is another definitive
addition to his extraordinary Caitlin
Strong series. Fast-moving and riveting from
beginning to end, STRONG TO THE BONE definitely lives up to
its title. I'm a big fan of Land's expertly devised and
executed plots, his addition of historical facts that
connect to current situations, and his profound portrayal of
such realistic characters. Resilient, smart and savvy,
Caitlin Strong is a Texas Ranger legend in the making, the
same as her renowned ancestors. Just when I think Caitlin
can't possibly face another tough challenge, Land formulates
more facets of this woman to amaze me further. I don't know
what Jon Land has planned for Caitlin in the future,
but I will certainly be along for the exhilarating ride.
