Title: Killer Pursuit
Author: Jeff Gunhus
Genre: Suspense, Thriller
Publisher: Seven Guns Press
*I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest
review.*
This is the second book in the Allison McNeil series and
even though it’s a sequel, I think the book can work as a standalone. Killer
Pursuit follows FBI agent, Allison, as she’s investigates the case of Catherine
Fews. When Catherine’s murdered, Allison’s on a mission to find her killer and
videos, which will leave most of Washington’s politicians embroiled in a
scandal. As Allison works the case, not only does she have to deal with finding
the killer, but also her boss, Clarence Mason, who has ulterior motives when it
comes to the case.
I loved how the author set the book in Washington and
included political scandals as part of the plot; I thought it added excitement
and intrigue to the story. The book was filled with lots of suspense and
action, I kept wondering if Allison would capture the killer and solve the
case.
I liked the character of Allison McNeil; I loved how she was
a strong character and handled herself in a male-dominated profession. Yet, I
also liked how Allison has a sensitive side and it shows as she remembers
details of a painful past. Allison’s past is showcased more in the first book,
but the author does give glimpses of what she went through. Reading about
Allison makes me curious to read the first book in the series to learn more
about her and her history.
I noticed there were a couple of grammar and spelling issues
in the book that kind of bothered me. Also, another critique I had was the
multiple POVs. I found at times, it got a bit confusing. One chapter would
focus on Allison, then the next would be Mason, and then it would be Libby
Ashworth or Summerhays.
Aside from that, it was a good, suspenseful thriller and I’m
looking forward to reading more of these stories from the author.
