After losing a teammate on a deadly mission, Hunter Wesley Thorton-Payne III, an operative for the American Intelligence agency B.A.D., promises revenge. He must use all of his skills to prove to his boss that he is fine and not going rogue; while using his resources to work his own agenda to locate the killer. His research confirms that using his background of being rich and privileged gains access to all of the elite parties, including a charity ball with ties to the terrorist group he is tracking. Ready to be bored and eager to have the night over with, a delightful distraction sweeps through the room, catching his attention. Before he can figure her out, everything goes wrong and he must play knight-in-shining-armor with danger at every corner.
Abbie Blanton will use whoever and whatever she can to gain access to a charity ball to speak to the host. The answers to helping her failing mother weigh heavily on gaining access, so Abbie must do her best to look like she belongs among the rich and stuffy. Unaware of the other agendas in the room and completely focusing on her solitary goal, she draws the attention of another guest who comes to her rescue on more than one occasion. As her opportunity approaches, gunshots erupt, leaving one woman in critical condition and Abbie on the run with the one man willing to help her regardless of the secrets she keeps. Together they enter an adventure that tests both their wills.
SILENT TRUTH has thrilling and exciting action scenes with characters that come alive on the pages (regardless of the fact I was missing 10 pages of the review copy). A very pleasurable read!
