A year ago, Lady Elizabeth Palmer foolishly became involved with a person who turned out to be a terrorist. She learned that he had schemed for her to die with hundreds in a bombing in London. Luckily the plan was discovered and averted. Now she feels life is slowly getting back to normal but in only days the optimistic outlook on life changes. Three times she is attacked, and no one knows why after all this time. So, she does what she must – she disappears. Autumn Backman is a 12-year-old who has gotten a summer job that she isn’t thrilled about. Who wants to spend the whole summer with a shy little boy who doesn’t know anything about outdoor fun? Tash Navarro is staying with his uncle Rebel while his father, Archer and his stepmother Sasha go on a long honeymoon. She isn’t so upset when she learns that Tash is gifted psychically just as she is, and she can’t wait to tell her friend F.B.I Agent Dillon Savich. When the honeymooners disappear, and it looks like Tash’s father has embezzled from his company things really go crazy. Welcome back to author Catherine Coulter’s F.B.I. series. Ms. Coulter weaves the dual stories in FLASHPOINT in such a seamless fashion that readers slide from one to another without missing a beat. Elizabeth finds herself in America and works hard to beef herself up, so she is never again a victim. As part of getting answers, she goes to Savich and his wife, a very pregnant, Sherlock to ask them for help and MI5 and the F.B.I. come up with a plan. Part of the plan is for Special Agent Rome Foxe to join the group as her bodyguard. Rome is not happy at first when he hears who he is babysitting and immediately gets the wrong ideas. He learns quickly that she might be an aristocrat but now she knows how to handle what comes her way. Readers will be surprised at the unexpected twist that ends this part of FLASHPOINT. The Navarro storyline is woven differently as Autumn and Tash learn more about their psychic abilities and the F.B.I get involved in the embezzlement. I have to say that this part does not put the agents in a very flattering light as they arrest Rebel and try to get him to confess. It takes his ingenuity, luck and a couple of young psychics to get to the truth. I admit that I did solve this storyline early – it’s part of why I love to read mysteries such as FLASHPOINT. Though I had the answer of who the culprit was Ms. Coulter was able to throw in a couple of unexpected twists that I did not see coming. Oh, and Sherlock has her baby. Read FLASHPOINT to see what she has and how the baby got its name. If you want action, drama, danger, romance, mystery and surprises then get your hands on FLASHPOINT.
