Never reveal your secrets...Trinity, an intelligence organization known only through whispers, specializes in covert action. Heading up this modern-day operation is founder Gerry Strakner and his team of skilled misfits. The key to staying alive lies within their code: never divulge your greatest fears or darkest secrets. But sometimes the past refuses to stay buried...While his organization is under attack, Gerry must let his favorite operative, Caria, fend for herself against a vicious arms dealer. When he learns that she is caught in the crosshairs, his only hope is he's taught her enough to stay alive.Now Gerry must call in an old favor to save Caria. Ivan Skavinsk, a reclusive mercenary, is the one man skilled enough to infiltrate the playing field of assassins. But which side is he truly working for? Does loyalty have an expiration date or will deception burn everyone within its reach?… (mehr)
What I loved: - Caria kicks ass. She is bold, tough, intelligent, passionate... all good things I love to see in a female lead. - I really enjoy the author's way with words. The depth of her descriptions is poetic, precise, and this book never feels like I'm reading filler. If she possessed none of that, she should at least be the kind of woman with both a personality and face that could make any man question his better judgment. There weren’t enough of those in the world, at least not in the world he knew.
- Jancy just doesn't quit. Everyone should have one of her at their side. - Speaking of. I thoroughly enjoyed the way DD painted all her characters - the character development was top rate. I loved getting to know them... - Oh, the pain of betrayal I felt at some of the twists in this story - I have a feeling it will stay with me for a long time. For someone who read 100+ books so far this year, that's saying something. - This is not a romance, but there is romance in it. Do not read it for that - it'll only break your heart! - Drea knows her shit. Undercover operatives, mercenaries, overseas conflicts... I feel I got smarter reading this story, like I got to share in a little bit of the author's brain! FYI - read the foreword! - From 90% until the end of the Epilogue, I don't know if I even breathed. Excellent twists and turns, and heartbreak. - Excellent editing. I've read some doozies this year, and believe me - spelling, formatting and punctuation are a joy to behold.
What I didn’t love: - The first 10% didn't grab me like the rest of the book did. I understand the need for it, and how it established backstory, but I just wasn't all in at that point.
Overall… I enjoy a good thriller as much as the next girl - Tom Clancy, Lee Child, Vince Flynn - and this one had my heart going just as much. Excellent writing, plot development, wonderful characters, heartbreak and intrigue. I hope it gets the publicity it deserves!
Chasing Vengeance (The Trinity Missions #1) is an espionage thriller with a kick-butt female lead that has action, adventure and intrigue. This is a fast paced read from start to finish that is very hard to put down.
This book is so exciting and it makes you want the next installment immediately without leaving you on a cliffhanger. I love that! I will definitely be looking for Ms. Damara’s next Trinity Missions book.
There’s so much in this novel: action, timely twists, heartbreak, loyalty, powerful love (believe me on this one), betrayal, intrigue, etc, I could go on and on. Very few books go on my read again shelf. This one does. I’m ordering a hard copy today. Five big stars plus.
