Fiction. Thriller. HTML:An electrifying new novel from the bestselling author of Crimson Phoenix, perfect for fans of Vince Flynn and Brad Thor! Black Ops veteran Jonathan Grave is back and pursuing two missing American teens kidnapped and hidden in Mexico's dark underworld...where he finds himself caught in the center of a vendetta he never expected.

A BookBub Top Thriller of Summer
El Paso, Texas, is a battleground. It's an open market for Mexican drug cartels to sell their wares. It's also a destination for teens looking for fun. Venice Alexander's fourteen-year-old son Roman was there on a school trip. Now, he and a fellow student have vanished without a trace.

Assuming the kidnapping is retaliation for his past incursions against Mexico's crime syndicates, Jonathan Grave leads his covert operatives to rescue their teammate's son. But the trail Jonathan follows leads him down unexpected paths where he ends up in the crossfire of a deadly vendetta...
"[Gilstrap's] greatest strength is the ability to blend breathtaking action with deep emotion regarding the characters."

Stealth Attack by John Gilstrap
Jonathan Graves #13

Wow! Great book that kept me up till the wee hours of the morning…I could NOT put it down then had trouble sleeping once I finished the last page. I have only read one other book in this series but was still able to read without any trouble at all. That said, at some point in time I really want to read this series through from book one to the end. Although, I would hate to see this series end at all!

What I liked:
* The intensity and immediacy
* John Graves: focused, skilled, intense, lethal, dedicated to his cause, good friend, team player, wealthy, a bit of an enigma (at least to me with only two books under my reading belt).
* Boxer: the man on the mission with Graves is bigger than most, scary, deadly, someone you want on your side.
* Roman: on a field trip in Texas, bright, almost fourteen, ruled by his hormones, trained in martial arts, protective, strong willed, a good kid in the wrong place and collaterally kidnapped with his female classmate
* The women: Gail, Venice, Mama, Sofia, Sister Katherine…
* The action scenes – felt real, gritty, dark and compelling
* That I felt I was there and all senses engaged
* That some bad guys were taken out
* That some trafficked children were saved
* All of it really except…

What I didn’t like:
* The bad guys and there were plenty to hate and wish gone.
* Realizing that human trafficking is all too real in this world

Did I enjoy this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series? Yes

Thank you to NetGalley a nd Kensington-Pinnacle Books for the ARC – This is my honest review.
