Alisa Flynn is a CIA agent and not one that really adheres to the rules. She wants the help of Gabe Korgan, a billionaire, who has the most amazing modern weaponry at his disposal, on a rather personal but dangerous mission. Girls have been kidnapped from an exclusive school and someone there is someone special to Alisa. But, surprising the effect this man has over her is creating CHAOS when she can least afford it.
Gabe Korgan is intrigued by the woman who quite easily broke into his house, with all its latest security he has developed. He knows there is more to her story and he's about to find out what that is while finishing up something personal for himself.
CHAOS is what author Iris Johansen creates so easily - a book filled with conflict, danger, a touch of romance when it is least expected by the couple, with elements ripped from the very headlines. In other words, a book that is really, really hard to put down, and when you do you find yourself thinking what is about to happen next.
Alisa is a new character for Ms. Johansen and her readers but this single-minded woman fits perfectly into the type of world she brings readers happily into. She is stubborn, determined, with secrets and the knowledge that anyone a little different is to be feared or made fun of and is determined to help those who need it most. Gabe is an enigma who comes across as someone who is a bored millionaire with to many toys but almost immediately that foolish persona is knocked off and the man under it all comes out. He is a force to be reckoned with and Alisa is very good at reading him--a perfect match.
It is always fun to match wits with Ms. Johansen, as we read and try to figure out how she plans to do away with the bad guy, how the evil they are perpetrating will be stopped before more girls are harmed beyond repair, and what could possibly be at the root of all of this evil act. And then to find it all comes down to a horse--a stallion named CHAOS and the young girl who communicates with him. The real star of the whole book is the young girl and the horses she has an affinity with, though the other humans do help put an end to the bad guy's evil deeds.
Looking for action, danger, drama, romance, surprises, secrets, with even more totally unexpected twists and turns? Then CHAOS is what you need in your hands!
The #1 New York Times bestselling author introduces CIA agent Alisa Flynn, who is willing to go rogue if it means catching the most heartless band of criminals she's ever encountered.
When CIA agent Alisa Flynn flaunts the rules by breaking into a mansion in the middle of the night, she skillfully circumvents alarms and outwits guards only to find herself standing in billionaire Gabe Korgan's study . . . busted by Korgan himself. This could cost her her job unless, in a split second, she can turn the tables and try to convince him to join her on the most important mission of her life.
In a ripped-from-the-headlines plot, schoolgirls in Africa have been kidnapped, and Alisa knows that Korgan has the courage, financial means, and high-tech weaponry to help rescue them. With so many innocent lives hanging in the balance, what she doesn't reveal is that one of those schoolgirls is like a little sister to her. But when the truth gets out, the stakes grow even higher.
Calling in additional assistance from renowned horse whisperer Margaret Douglas, Alisa and Gabe lay their plans, only to see them descend into chaos as the line between right and wrong wavers before them like a mirage. Every path is strewn with pitfalls, each likely to get them -- or the hostages -- killed. But with the help of a brave team and a horse with the heart of a warrior, they might just get out of this alive.
