Flint River #3
Danger in the Hills
Special Agent Jack Stone leads an FBI raid on a neo-Nazi compound in northern Idaho. The fanatics are responsible for an attempted bombing of an elementary school in Chicago. When the dust settles, the FBI team realizes the group’s two leaders have escaped. Gone also, is an unaccounted for, mysterious beauty whom Jack noticed on the grounds that morning.
Jack and his partner Rick, along with an FBI search squad, track the fugitives deep into the woods. It is imperative they capture the neo-Nazi leaders before they reestablish their terrorist plot. Jack must also discover the unknown woman’s identity, and determine what part she plays in the extremist organization.
Separated from his team, Jack forges on alone, unwilling to risk losing the murderous leaders. He is hot on their trial when a brutal blizzard hits the mountains. Jack is caught in the storm—wounded and unprepared. Just as he loses consciousness, Jack glimpses her—the enigmatic woman. But is she friend or foe?

Read you won’t regret!
I have now read both of her series and I have got so caught up in them that I tried to read each all the way through in one setting. These have everything from romance to struggles to suspense. Recommend both series!

I finished reading Danger In The Hills, Book 3 in the Flint River Series last night. Like with all the other books in the series, I couldn’t put it down once I started reading. Like Run For The Hills and Hidden In The Hills, it’s a page burner. Just when you think the books couldn’t get anymore tense, anymore exciting, Jodi does the impossible.
Danger In The Hills begins where Hidden In The Hills ends, with Jack Stone leading a raid on the Neo-Nazi compound high in the mountains. Everything went according to plan until Jack realizes three people and a horse are missing. When Jack and his partner go off to find them, they get separated and Jack is shot three times and knocked into a ravine where he is found by the daughter of the cult leader. With the help of her horse, she gets him back to her cabin. He survives being shot because of body armor with only a few broken ribs and a concussion from hitting his head. They get snowed in and they are almost buried alive when the roof of the cabin collapses under the weight of the snow. If that isn’t bad enough, her father and his second in command discover them as they are digging their way out. Laurel takes a bullet meant for Jack and…. well, you’ll have to read the book to find out what happens next.
A Flint River Christmas, the epilogue novelette is really anticlimactic, but, still, another great read.

Exciting FBI drama featuring Jack Stone. Great characters and a strong plot with a romantic sub plot. Nicely narrated audio book

This is the perfect end to the trilogy of the Stone brothers! While I really enjoyed all the brothers, Jack is by far my favourite. I love a man who know how to handle himself and can be depended on! The relationship with him and Laurel is so real and these are two characters I could really root for.
This is a well-researched and face paced book!

Better. Much better!
I've managed to figure out my place.I'm Jodi Burnett's world of characters. I suppose that if I read through her list of books I might have seen it more quickly, but it is what it is.
Apparently she began with the Fall River series, creating Stone Ranch and the three brothers. Each of the three first books took their stories in order. The previous book in the series - which I found I read and - carried story line elements that goes it into this one.
The youngest brother, Jack, is an FBI agent on an op in Idaho. I credit Burnett for carrying things through from the previous book without resorting to the "here's a recap of everyone and everythimg" school of writing. It's that FBI link that goes in with her next series of books, and THAT is followed by her current series. Glad I got that straignt.
This one is a delight. That FBI agent is wounded in the wilderness, saved by the daughter of the cu!t leaderless stalking and ulti!ate!y reunited with his family. All done with skilled writing and plotting. Now I'm once again ready to read more of her work!

I learned more about the neo-Nazi group reading this book. It was sad to see it up close and personal. Reading this book made me love all the characters even more. What Laurel went through is a testament that all good things come to fruition when listened to and loved. I hope there is a 4th book so we know what happened to Laurel's mom, in Scotland, and we definitely know that she and Jack will remain together in some way. Grandma Mary, is such a love and I'm happy for her to be able to start a new journey as well.
I loved all three books in this series. It gave us a great understanding of family life on the ranch and in the FBI. I, for one, am very family oriented and learned a lot from this series and the K9 series as well.
Thank you Jodi Burnett for three great series of books. I'll be waiting anxiously for more to come.

The best book of the Flint River series!
Jodi Burnett’s Flint River series has quickly become my favorite of her series. Danger in the Hills focused on Jack Stone and his FBI team going after the Neo-Nazis in Idaho responsible for the aborted Chicago bombing covered in Run for the Hills, book 1 of the series. Along with plenty of action, this story was an excellent character study of Jack and a young lady who rescues and takes care of him in the mountains. Saying much more about the story might provide spoilers and that would be unforgivable. This story deserves to be experienced without much prior knowledge. My review is based on listening to Nick Cracknell narrate Jodi’s excellent story. Nick does an awesome job with the character voices and delivering the story and bringing it to life along with the characters. I’ll be patiently waiting for the next installment in the series.

Audiobook: I enjoyed book three of the "Flint River Series" as much as the first two. As soon as the audiobook started, I was gripped by the story and had to listen until its end. Special Agent Jack Stone led a raiding party on a neo-Nazi compound, but the leaders of the group were missing. Jack and his contingent started to search the woods, when a blizzard began. Jack was separated from his group. I liked the characters and the relationship between Jack and his partner, Rick Sanchez. Rick's determination to find Jack was admirable. The story held twists that kept my attention. Nick Cracknell's narration was entertaining. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review which included my opinions.

Read is 3rd book in a romantic suspense series
A favorite of reviewer’s in series.
Storyline is about the Stone brother, Jack.
He leads a mission to capture Jedediah- leader of the clan that is responsible for blowing up the school mentioned in the previous book of series.
When Jack is wounded, he is taken in by a woman. A woman who happens to be the daughter of a suspect. While her father died in bombing she still grieves the man that had submitted her to a form of slavers.
She is still indebted to her uncle Jedediah, who is now running the compound of men responsible for the bombing.
Only down fall is is this book appears to be last in series.
I would like a follow up with ALL characters in series.
A great, edge of your set thriller!
Strongly recommend

This time it’s the youngest Stone brother’s turn to fall in love. Special Agent Jack Stone’s love story is not conventional, as he falls for the daughter of the 2nd-in-charge of a terrorist neo-nazi group. There relationship turned physical very quickly while Jack and Laurel are snow bounded in a cabin in the mountains of Idaho, which was surprising. They have to build a trust quickly to survive.
Family, friends, trust, and new beginnings are front and centered. The book ends with unanswered questions regarding Laurel’s mother and what the next step Jack and her will take. Hopefully, another book will have those answers.

On the positives, it has an interesting premise, it is fast paced, and it has interesting characters. It gives a sense of closure. On the other hand, there was a lot of telling and not showing. I wish we could have been more immersed in the story by showing the traumatic events that happened to Laurel, and also, the romance could have been better developed, because, I really didn't feel the connection between Jack and Laurel (I mean, it was told to us, but not showed. It wasn't immersive).
Anyways, it's a good book to read on vacations.

FBI love
Jack has been following a terrorist called Jeremiah and they found his compound and all hell broke loose in the compound. Three people escaped Laurel, her father, and Jedediah. I found the plat very good at the main characters Jack and Laurel Very compelling and made for a good story. I really enjoyed the plot and there was a mixture of FBI work I love going on at the same time. It was a very homey and comfortable story and I really enjoyed it. I recommend this book for all who like a thriller and I love story.

I listened to this via Audible. I thought this was a pretty good story. It kept me engaged the entire time. When I had to take a break to get certain things done, I couldn’t wait to get back to the story.
Jack’s operation takes him to the Neo-Nazi compound. There is a raid but they don’t get their main guys. And things go south for the op guys.
I learned more about the Neo-Nazi philosophy and how Waco was even possible. Lemmings looking for direction and then having their life altered through brainwashing.
This book was entertaining. I would love more in this series.

This is the third book in a series which just keeps getting better. The book has romance, humor, danger, drama, and action. I love the characters. The author creates tight knit families and groups of law enforcement officers and friends that often show up in other her other series. They are the kind of people I would like to know…Well, obviously not the bad guys…I listened to the audiobook of this story and was very pleased with the person they chose to narrate it.
Excellent story and audio rendition!

4.5 out of 5 stars
I listened to an audiobook version of this book.
This book was the ideal conclusion to an engaging series. Picking up where book two left off, the story is rife with tension, danger and intensity. The narration was good bringing the story to life. J.B created characters that were interesting. I would love to see some of the supporting characters get their own story. What happens when Jack and Laurel travel to Scotland?

Non-stop action followed by a quiet, peaceful interlude; then non-stop action followed by a peaceful, family loving interlude- if that the story you were looking for, dive right in!
The descriptions will draw you into the picture the author paints in your mind. You’ll find yourself telling the protagonist what to do next, because you can see it.
Then your emotions will grab you and keep you in the story until the end. Enjoy the ride!

Best one in the series so far! I still have the Christmas Flint River book to read; but, I loved this one! I normally don't read romance stories; I want mystery, action and a little humor. Soooo...imagine my surprise to have a story where romance is important to the storyline and it's tastefully done. I don't need steamy blow by blow sex scenes, even when they're obligatory. This one was just right and I'm looking forward even more to Ms. Burnett's other books. Recommended.

Good ending to series, but wanted more!
I have recently been introduced to this author and have been working my way through this series. Since this is the last book in the series, it was a way to wrap up some of the storylines but I still have outstanding questions. You really need to read these books in order and I am grateful they are on KU.

I am a HUGE fan of Jodi Burnett and this does not disappoint. Set in the northern Idaho mountains, this story has it all; danger, suspense and romance. Jodi does a great job with the character development. She expertly crafts the story to keep us guessing and in suspense. This story picks up where Book 2 left off. I recommend you read this series in order, although it is not necessary.

5*
The whole plot is a carry over from the second book, but like life, is in the grey area rather than the black and white that people like to believe.
A law enforcement officer being taking care of by the daughter of a criminal and falling in love, the ending leaving open the chance of a third book

This was the best book of the series in my opinion. The storyline is very current . There's suspense, danger, bravery, and romance but no graphic scenes of sex or violence.
I hope the Flint River Saga continues

The third in the Flint River series. Burnett expands on the youngest brother, Agent Jack Stone of the FBI. He returns home to investigate the original group that planned the bombing of an elementary school near Chicago. It's quite a ride through the Montana mountain Country. Excellent.

Very good read. I really enjoyed Jack's story, although Case is still my favorite. I hope there is a Scottish continuous to this story, to insure an all round happy ending
