High Treason by DiAnn Mills ~ Review

High Treason (FBI Task Force #3)
Lucie's Review:

When FBI Special Agent Kord Davidson's friend Prince Omar bin Talal of Saudi Arabia comes to Houston seeking care for his mother who has cancer, his decoy is shot down, and the FBI is put on high alert for future attempts on Omar's life. Kord is assigned to the protection detail due to his friendship with the Prince, but he is none too pleased when CIA agent Monica Alden is also assigned to the case.

When it is revealed that there is more to Omar's visit than finding cancer care for his mom, suddenly they realize that more is at stake and why he is being targeted. Can Monica and Kord work together to stop the assassin before a war is started?

Monica senses Kord's disapproval immediately,  but she is determined to be professional and do her job. She has spent some time in the Middle East and understands quite a bit of their culture and language, she is respectful and she and the Prince share a mutual respect for each other, and she befriends his sisters, Yasmine and Fatima. She earns Kord's grudging respect and then friendship, but is hesitant to take it further since she has been hurt and made mistakes in the past.

Kord is searching for something more in his life, he has read the Bible and the Koran, and Monica helps him come to term with things and figure out what he believes.

Omar cares for his mother and wants the very best care for her, he insists on visiting his mother everyday, even though that puts him in danger away from his guarded mansion.

Monica and Kord must work together to find the assassin, they know that they can't keep the Prince safe unless they cut off the threat at the source.They call in all of their resources and keep turning up clues. I liked their mutual respect for each other, and thay they stand by each other. There is also some great dialog between them. Mionica and Kord and smart, brave, capable, and with a great work ethic, they are dedicated to their work. I loved the full cast of characters in their action packed read, it was hard to put down, with twists that had be guessing till the end! Fantastic read.
