Alex Troutt Thriller, Book #6
AT Last
Thirty years after losing a parent to a hit-and-run drunk driver, FBI agent Alex Troutt finally confronts the killer--the same man who just murdered the Boston police chief.
And what Alex pulls from him shatters her core.
Armed with little more than hope and a shred of decades-old evidence, Alex chases a memory from her past, hoping that she'll find the mother she never really had. With her old buddy Archie on board --as much as ever can be -- the hunt takes her deep into the foothills of West Virginia. A fanatical religious cult has created its own society. Desperate to right a thirty-year wrong, Alex must out-think and out-duel everyone in her path to right a thirty-year wrong.
Will Alex’s quest to find the truth destroy her life all over again?
My thoughts:
First off, I've read all of the Alex Troutt books, and I was stunned to find out that this was the last one! I was ready to read a dozen more.
That being said, this book delved into Alex's history in a way that none of the other books did. It had action, adventure, a 30 year old mystery, and an FBI agent trying to answer questions about her own childhood.
In a major twist, during an unrelated case Alex gets answers to her mother's death from a hit and run from her childhood. But the answers actually give her more questions, and she can't settle happily into her life without knowing what happened.
I wholly recommend this book (and this series!) This can be read as a stand alone book, but you'll get so much more out of reading the whole series.
