Scouring Agent: A Thriller

by Sean Sweeney

A well-timed string of attacks and events in Washington, D.C. has President Eric B. Forrister and the CIA scrambling for answers in the ninth Jaclyn Johnson thriller novel. How well-timed are they? It just so happens the attacks occur as Jaclyn is out of the country, on her honeymoon in Wales. With Tasha Verkler, Jaclyn’s ward and confidante, at the head of the investigation alongside Desmond Daly, a.k.a. Salt, the duo look to discover who’s behind these brazen attacks—the new Supreme Court Museum has been bombed, two Justices dead; the Senate Majority Leader killed by a sniper—until the unthinkable Jaclyn and Tom’s ride home from Heathrow is also bombed. Do Jaclyn and Tom make it back to the United States, or does Tasha manage to solve it herself?
