The Perfect Patriot: A Lance Priest/Preacher Thriller
April 19,1995. It should have been joy and wonder and celebration. CIA ice-cold killer Lance Priest and equally deadly former KGB operative Marta Sidorova welcomed their baby - a girl, an angel, everything. But...
News of the Oklahoma City Bombing came minutes after their personal angel was born. Murdered that day were 168 Americans, including 19 babies. Lance felt the pull, the need to right this terrible wrong. Preacher doesn't do anything halfway. His journey to find these killers leads him from the bomb's destructive aftermath in Oklahoma into danger at every turn as he uncovers a plot that will shake the nation to its core.
Meanwhile, the wave of death left in Preacher's wake from a week in Juarez months earlier creates a challenge that even Preacher may not be able to overcome. Bullets will fly. Bodies will fall. People will die. That happens when Lance is around. The Perfect Patriot is the fifth book in the Lance Priest/Preacher series. Hold on tight. It is a doozy.

Loved this book and the series...The Perfect Candidate, The Perfect Weapon, The Perfect Angel, and the novello "En El Medio". A must read for the adrenaline-chaos junkie. I pray for more Lance Priest/Preacher books and Christopher Metcalf just moved into my top ten fav authors.
April 19,1995. It should have been joy and wonder and celebration. CIA ice-cold killer Lance Priest and equally deadly former KGB operative Marta Sidorova welcomed their baby - a girl, an angel, everything. Then a bombing in Oklahoma City happens...Enjoy the ride!

A little disappointed
I couldn't get into this one like I did the others. A bit boring and borderline annoying at times. Maybe the OKC bombing plot twist muddied it for me. I don't know.
