Awesome book, awesome story. This is book 5 in the Black Swamp Series but the series by no means needs to be read in order (I didn't). It is such a good read. It starts out with a bang, a real attention grabber. Then it settles down for a bit so that you get involved in the characters lives and get to know them, get a sense of what's going on and potentially what the mystery is. Then things soon pick up again and you have ships being blown up, people being chased and shot, hidden cameras seeing things they shouldn't be. You feel like you are a part of this story, of the characters' lives. It's really well written, it starts with the CIA trying to solve one mystery only to discover that there are a couple of others ones going on. 
 I love this series and the real-life people who make it so engaging. It was great to see what was happening with Brenda - I think my favorite character - who is in trouble big time with the authorities. She doesn't care about the rules just in getting things done, her way. Her sister Vicki works with the CIA so it makes things awkward at times when family loyalty gets in the way of catching the bad guys. Then there's Chris, a nice political guy, who goes from not breaking rules to breaking many. And then there's Dylan - who can resist a guy with an Irish brogue? Oh yeah and there's Sam too, their contact in the CIA, who's a bit grumpy but quite likeable. 
 This book can be read on its own but is a great culmination of all the Black Swamp Mystery series. Ms. Terrell is one of my favorite authors as she weaves an interesting and intriguing mystery that includes elements of the psychic world, romance, intrigue, suspense. Well done.
