MINUTES TO DIE (Homeland Heroes Book #2) by Susan Sleeman is PROFOUND! This novel tells the story of FBI Agent Kiley Dawson and the Red Team tasked with the biggest case of any of their careers. They have discovered terrorists have been smuggled into the United States and are planning the biggest attack since 9/11. Kiley is the first woman to be leading such a high profile team so she is already placing extreme pressure on herself. The Team has a new member ICE Agent Evan Bowers. Kiley and Evan worked together on a previous mission that resulted in the third member of their Team being killed. Kiley has always blamed Evan for what happened. Evan is the best at what he does so they need him so Kiley must find a way to work with him so the whole Team will be able to function at 100 percent. And to complicate things even further, the two of them were beginning to grow very close prior to the loss of their Team member.
Susan Sleeman has long been on of my favorite authors. She keeps you on the edge of your seat with excitement and keeps you up way into the night reading one more page, chapter, etc. Also, Sleeman always goes the extra mile in her explanation of police procedurals. In MINUTES TO DIE, she has the Red Team digging and going far beneath what is superficial, external, or obvious in their pursuit of putting the pieces of the puzzle together and thwarting the plans of the terrorists. Sleeman certainly makes readers stop and think of the possibility of our vulnerabilities and the dedicated Law Enforcement Agents that work day in and day out to protect us. This was a very informative read.
