Blown Coverage
So I finished my book Monday Night Jihad and have moved on to the sequel Blown Coverage. Since it is a sequel the main characters are the same and the bad guys are a little bit different. I have just started so not much has happened but it did start off with some good action that now has me anticipating the rest of the book. The plot of this story is based on what happened during the last book, so I’ll try not to give away too much, but if a do I’m sorry. Anyway the story basically picks right back where it was left off, which I like because you don’t miss much. Riley Covington and his three teammates; Scott Ross, Khadi Faroughi, and Skeeter Dawkins are on vacation in San Jose, Costa Rica when the story starts. The gang had just finished off a job that they thought was completely done, when actually they only wounded the enemy so now they are back and angry. These books have intrigued me because they incorporate so much from the details of professional football to black ops to religious conflicts to family matters, it mixes everything and still seems like it could be reality. The reality part is actually scary because although I doubt, and hope nothing like what happens in the book happens, nothing is for certain and now days it could happen especially the way it is described in the book. It has really made me think and be extremely grateful for our freedom and the people protecting that freedom. The story line has a lot to with secrets being revealed and discovered while the Counter Terrorist Division, which Riley and his team are a part of, tries to keep up with the terrorist and stopping their evil plans before it is too late. I'm only about 1/3 of the way through but it is a page turner from the start. I cannot wait to finish this book and see how it plays out.
