Jaime is the daughter of a retired General and owns her
own
private investigations and security firm. She makes good
money doing what she does and has many high end clients.
So
when her ex-husband calls her and asks for her help she
tells him no way. That is until he tells her his three
year
old daughter is missing and she realizes she can't let a
child suffer because she hates him.
While searching for the child Jamie uncovers some nasty
truths about people around her.
She also has to worry about a crazy stalker from a
previous
case that is on the loose and searching for her. Dealing
with all this would be too much for many people but Jamie
is stronger than most people most and doesn't stop until
she is done.
I've reviewed over a hundred and fifty book this year and
I have to say this was one of my favorites. Oh sure there
are the big time authors who can't write a bad book if
they
try and more than a few up and coming who do great work,
but Nichole Christoff got it right.
I was impressed with her knowledge of military and the way
it is run. Nichole Christoff got the FBI right, the
constant battle between law enforcement for control of
cases right, soldiers and their families right, and a
strong woman right. The main character Jamie wasn't so
strong that as a woman you are rolling your eyes going
please, but strong, smart and brave enough to get the job
done and earn the respect of those around her.
Nichole Christoff is the first author to have gotten it
all
correct and still write a good story. I enjoyed each of
the
characters and they all got what they deserved good or
bad.
I hope she has more plans for Jamie and that they include
Adam I can see her going great places with these
characters.
KILL LIST is a page turning, exciting and excellent story
that is a must read for everyone. If this is how Nichole
Christoff is starting her writing career then we have many
years
of great reading ahead of us.
In this taut debut thriller, Nichole Christoff introduces
a
savvy private investigator with nerves of steel—and a
shattered heart.
As a top private eye turned security specialist, Jamie
Sinclair has worked hard to put her broken marriage behind
her. But when her lying, cheating ex-husband, army colonel
Tim Thorp, calls with the news that his three-year-old
daughter has been kidnapped, he begs Jamie to come find
her.
For the sake of the child, Jamie knows she can’t refuse.
Now, despite the past, she’ll do everything in her power
to
bring little Brooke Thorp home alive.
Soon Jamie is back at Fort Leeds—the army base in New
Jersey’s Pine Barrens where she grew up, the only child of
a
two-star general—chasing down leads and forging an uneasy
alliance with the stern military police commander and the
exacting FBI agent working Brooke’s case. But because
Jamie’s father is now a U.S. senator, her recent run-in
with
a disturbed stalker is all over the news, and when she
starts receiving gruesome threats echoing the stalker’s
last
words, she can’t shake the feeling that her investigation
may be about more than a missing girl—and that someone
very
powerful is hiding something very significant . . . and
very
sinister.
