In Harm’s Way

Random Retro Read

How can she expect anyone to believe her… when she can hardly believe it herself?

FBI special agent Nick Bradley has seen his share of kooks during his fifteen years with the Bureau. But Rachel Sutton is an enigma. She seems normal when she shows up at his office… until she produces a tattered Raggedy Ann doll and tells him about a strange feeling of terror it gives her when she touches it. Nick dismisses her, only to stumble across a link between the doll and an abducted child, setting in motion a chain of events that uncovers startling connections and puts Rachel’s life on the line.

Filled with palpable suspense and heartwarming romance, In Harm’s Way is the final installment of the thrilling Heroes of Quantico series.

My Review:

published in 2010

The third and final instalment of the Heroes of Quantico series and does this one ever pack a punch! First off — no worries if you haven’t read the other books in the series, this one reads wonderfully well as a standalone. However, if you are a series fan, you’ll be thrilled to catch up with past heroes and their heroines so that’s a bonus.

This was my second visit into Nick and Rachel’s world and I was just as captivated as my first read. This time I enjoyed the audible edition narrated by Stevie Ray Dallimore.

Really loved the retro vibe to this romantic suspense. The pacing is so different, leaving plenty of time to develop the romance while the suspense quietly stews in the background. But that doesn’t make it any less suspenseful. If anything, it edges it up a notch and makes for an even more compelling read.

I’m finding that Irene Hannon’s masterful storytelling stands the test of time as I reread my way through her earlier works and I’m not surprised by that at all. She creates Keeper Shelf quality books I’ll want to read again and again.

  3. I so enjoy Irene’s books. I lived in St. Louis for 20 years and know many of the local places she uses in her books. In fact one of the places was directly across from my Church! And another was about a block away from where I lived. Such fun! I am in the process of collecting her back list.

    1. That is so cool. Must be so much fun to spot the familiar landmarks. I know more about St. Louis from reading Irene Hannon’s books than I ever knew before. Hooray for your backlist collecting. Mine is complete except for one because — ack — I mistakenly put it in the return bin with my library books and they thought it was a donation to their used book sale. Sob! I went back the same day but the book was gone. Sigh. Must remember to replace that one. Happy Reading, Paula!
