The End Game by Catherine CoulterMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
The End Game, 3rd book in Catherine Coulter & J.T. Ellison’s A Brit in the FBI Series.
A small underground group known as the Celebrants of the Earth (COE) is determined to stop America from importing oil from the Middle East and has been bombing local power grids and oil refineries on a small scale without causing any deaths.
When one oil refinery in New Jersey is bombed causing multiple casualties, FBI agent Nicholas Drummond and his partner, Michaela “Mike” Caine race against time to find the perpetrators.
Bombings, cyber-attacks, hackers, action, undercover agents, mad scientists, ruthless assassins, a plot to kill world leaders….action packed car chases!!
I found the beginning of this book rather slow but it does pick up but never to the point of exciting me.
There were a lot of secondary characters that I thought made no sense to the plot. An interesting character introduced in this book - undercover CIA agent Vanessa Grace, who I look forward to seeing more of in the futute.
It seems that there’s some kind of build-up of a romance between Nicholas and Mike, which is probably going to be expanded in the next book.
I liked how the authors interwove the famous chess match in 1956 between Bobby Fischer and Donald Byrne that was dubbed The Game of the Century into the plot.
Not a WOW addition to the series, End Game is still an enjoyable read.
