Now they must fight to survive or risk becoming the latest casualties in a deadly conspiracy.
My Review
Danger Unknown was a very intense book where Brooke and her daughter, Izzy, are running from a murderer. You can feel the tension from Brooke as she is desperately trying to save herself and her daughter. This is great writing when you feel just as anxious as the characters. There are many unanswered questions that slowly are revealed as the novel moves along at a fast pace.
I really loved main character Michael, a vet with PTSD from his service in Iraq. He's now living the life of a cowboy in Montana raising therapy horses and boy does he fill those cowboy boots really well. His heart is big and he can't help but jump in to help Brooke and Izzy. Some of my favorite moments in the book were between Michael and Izzy, as he tries to help the young girl through a traumatic experience by introducing her to a special horse. I also want to give a shout out to Michael's friend Cap and his wife Little Bear Paw. They added a special touch to life in Montana and the beauty that is there. They both are pretty tough and pivotal to the story.
There are so many things that make Danger Unknown a fabulous book. It's chock full of danger, suspense, action, a little romance, and enough quiet moments to give you a breather before something else crazy happens. I loved Danger Unknown! Author Kathi Oram Peterson has written another thriller that hooks you and doesn't release the reader until the very last page.
