Summary of the Book:
The electrifying sequel to THE FREEDOM BROKER, featuring Thea Paris, a kidnap and ransom specialist. For Thea, kidnap is always personal – her brother’s life was nearly ruined when he was taken as a child. Lisa Gardner says THE FREEDOM BROKER is ‘clever and gritty’ and Peter James calls it ‘spellbinding’. If you like David Baldacci’s King and Maxwell series, you will love this.
When Thea Paris’s flight is hijacked over the Libyan Desert, her first priority is the two former child soldiers she is escorting to a new life in London.
As an international kidnap specialist, Thea Paris negotiates for hostage release as part of her job. She knows one wrong move could lead to deadly consequences.
After she is forcibly separated from the boys and the other passengers, Thea and her tactical team quickly regroup. And in their desperate search for the hostages that follows, unearth a conspiracy involving the CIA, the Vatican and the Sicilian Mafia, and a plot far more sinister than Thea could ever have imagined.
My Personal Review: I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. The long awaited sequel to The Freedom Broker. I loved the first book. Here we are back with Thea as she is taking to former child solider from Africa to the UK for adoption when she is separated from them when the plane is hi-jacked. The pilot has locked himself in the cabin and taking the plane to a new destination in the desert. That is when she and her team gets to work. These is a lot of suspense and twists and turns in this book from Mafia, Vatican, and CIA being involved. It is just plain crazy adventure.
My Rating of the Book: 4 Stars
