Word of Honor




Book Description: 

FBI Special Agent Lynda Culter is investigating an ecoterrorist organization in the Alaskan wilderness when her partner is taken captive and murdered before her very eyes. The only person who can identify the key players, Lynda gets assigned to take part in a joint operation in Istanbul to take the organization down.

As a woman in a Muslim country, she'll find it much easier to move around undetected with a fake husband. Unfortunately for her, the man assigned to play the role is none other than US Army weapons specialist Bill Sanders--the man who crushed her heart into a million pieces back in college.

With a cargo bay's worth of hurt and baggage between them, these two consummate professionals must play their parts perfectly if they hope to stop those responsible for bombing oil pipelines, killing innocent civilians, and threatening to destabilize the oil markets. But love long buried has a way of resurfacing at the most inopportune times--and protecting Lynda has become Bill's primary focus.

My Review: 

FBI agent, Lynda Culter is just the woman needed to help uncover the plots  of an ecoterrorist group and the Russian Mob. She has grit, perseverance, and a brilliant mind that help her to see connections where others cannot. It was interesting to see her map out the events the old fashioned way with paper instead of using a computer. 

The team of special agents that Bill and Lynda are a part of were really fun to get to know. Their camaraderie and expertise made them the perfect team to destroy the plans of the criminals. Lynda is all business and is good at analytics while Bill is a man of action and has a great sense of humor too.  He has funny sayings such as, “that’s as normal as bumps on a pickle.” 


There was an extra bonus at the end of the books. Discussion questions for a book club as well as some Turkish recipes to try. The entrees look tasty and I am looking forward to making the falafel. 


Danger, mixed with faith, create a terrific story that was enjoyable to read. I recommend this book if  you enjoy books by similar authors such as Lynette Eason or Elizabeth Goddard. 


I received a copy of this book from Revell through NetGalley. I was not expected to write a positive review. All opinions are my own.
