Loose Ends by Jennifer Haynie


Hot off her first mission as a Unit 28 contractor agent, Alex Thornton wants nothing more than to focus on building a life with Jabir al-Omri, her best friend and boyfriend of five months.
A secret chains Jabir, one with such dire consequences that seeking freedom from it will cost him dearly. He finds himself caught between honoring those he cares about and being completely truthful with Alex.
Hashim al-Hassan craves vengeance against the woman who deceived him ten years before. The target of his wrath? Alex.
When Alex and Jabir receive an assignment to find the murderers of a shipping executive, their investigation brings them to the attention of Hashim. He begins stalking her. The bodies pile up, and people disappear.
Now, with Alex squarely within Hashim’s crosshairs, Jabir yearns to tell her what he knows. Yet the truth may destroy both her and those she loves the most.






Following up to last year’s novel, “Panama Deception”, Jennifer Haynie brings us the second book in the Unit 28 series, “Loose Ends”.  I would recommend reading them in order so as to keep up with all of the backstory that is brought out in this new book.

The author brings back the characters that you were introduced to in the first novel, so a feeling of familiarity envelopes you as you start into this book.  The characters continue to face adversity based on their chosen vocations but they endure them in believable story arcs.  The transitions from scene to scene is smooth and doesn’t appear forced, almost as if you are being lead down the story rather than pushed through plots.  All of this culminating in a plausible ending that is wrapped up nicely, with all of the questions throughout the book being answered.

Is this a "Guys Book"?   You name any spy/operative/military/espionage novel that you’ve enjoyed and I’ll tell you this one stacks right up there with them.  Do yourself a favor, pick up a copy of this book.
