Ricochet is a fierce and fast-paced story of treachery, misdirection, redemption and family. Taylor Moore has delivered a compelling thriller that wonderfully balances dangerous action with tender moments. A great addition to this stimulating series.
Garrett Kohl has paid his debt to the CIA after completing a mission to hunt down a traitor on the run. He’s looking forward to settling down on his ranch with the love of his life and his adopted son when he gets pulled back in to help an engineer at the nearby nuclear weapons plant who is being extorted by Iranian operatives. Garrett crafts a plan to turn the tables on the Quds Force spies but before he can get the mission under way, all hell breaks loose when the Iranians hijack a train with nuclear weapons. Enlisting the help of his friends and an enemy, they must do everything in their power to stop that train, recover the nuclear devices and keep their sacred home in the Texas High Plains safe from a catastrophic outcome.
Ricochet contains several expertly crafted action sequences that are ridiculously intense and sure to please the most hard-core thriller fans. But the heart of this book and what makes it memorable is the emotion elicited by character development and relationships. Father/Son communications, male/female dynamics, and overcoming adversarial interactions. Finding oneself, standing up to bullies, not being defined by your past and determining what’s most important in your life. All these themes are present and create a story that is much more than chasing down rogue spies hellbent on destroying America. They shine a spotlight on the human spirit and explore how interpersonal connections add richness to life.
This book has it all - high speed chases, gun battles, fist fights, flash floods, assassination attempts, business dealings, life lessons, personal betterment, and more. Taylor Moore has the goods and is now a perfect three for three in delivering intense stories that will give you the feels.
