Samantha Ryan is determined to work with a different partner at the Special Investigations Unit (SIU). She's put up with enough busywork from her partner, Gabriel Ryan, and her boss offers her the perfect solution- a chance to guard an official (one they suspect is actually a clone). Unfortunately, Gabriel is furious as he suspects it's a plot to draw out their enemy, Sethanon. Will Gabriel and Sam figure out how to handle the ever-growing connection between them in time?
PENUMBRA is the third and final book in the Spook Squad series. PENUMBRA is best appreciated in the context of the series as a whole as Keri Arthur plunges the reader headlong into the phenomenal world she has crafted. The ongoing storylines as well as the relationship between Gabriel and Sam have been developed over the course of the series.
Arthur PENUMBRA is action packed, from start to finish. Keri takes us further into the mystery of Sam's past and the connection to the Hopeworth Military Base. I love seeing Sam continue to grow and develop confidence in herself as she starts to look at herself as more than just the job.
Keri Arthur is a master at urban fantasy world building and character development and the Spook Squad series is proof of this. I've read and reread this series and love it each and every time. My only disappointment with PENUMBRA is that the series ends here as there are no plans to continue it. PENUMBRA and the Spook Squad series are masterfully done and I can't recommend them enough!
TWIN KILLING
Agent Sam Ryan wants out of the Special Investigations
Unit.
Sheβs sick of the attitude from her partner, Gabriel
Stern.
Sheβs sick of the paperwork. Most of all, sheβs sick of
feeling lonely. But her boss isnβt about to let her go
that
easily. He gives Sam a choice: either stay stuck in her
office or guard a clone replacement of Dan Wetherton, a
government minister. Sam reluctantly chooses the latterβ
even
though she suspects sheβs being used as bait to draw out
the
SIUβs elusive nemesis.
Gabriel would like nothing better than to be on his own,
without a partner to hold him back. Then he learns that
Sam
has been assigned to protect Wethertonβor whatever it is
thatβs replaced him. Wethertonβs clone could have come
from
only one place: Hopeworth, the military base that contains
the secrets of Samβs past. Determined to protect her,
Gabriel is drawn into a fight against unspeakable evil.
And
all too soon, Sam and Gabriel discover that the connection
between them is far more powerful than anyone could ever
have imagined.
