Countdown (Extreme Measures Book 4) by Lynette Eason is a predictably exciting thriller. Ms. Eason’s novels are always “on the edge of your seat” stories.
Someone is stalking Raina Price. She has changed her name and disappeared. She has relocated and has a job as a flight paramedic. Since her stalker has not emerged for a long while, Raina thinks she is safe, but can’t help looking over her shoulder always. Then her life is in danger again.
US Marshall Vincent Covelli’s job is to hunt down fugitives and protect those in protective custody as they are assigned to him. Since seeing Raina almost killed in front of him, he is assigned to try to keep her safe.
I loved Vincent Covelli’s character because he just didn’t give up and was always one step ahead. Even when Raina didn’t think he was around her, he was there to see her safe.
The action just continues to step up as the novel progresses. I was anxious the whole time I read the book because I always expected the worst to happen. Even when I thought the two were safe, the stalker seemed to find them.
I also thought that the author’s characterizations of the main individuals’ personalities gave the novel more interest. I always love to read Ms. Eason’s novels. I received this copy for free from Revell Publishing, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
