About this ebook
Someone is watching. Someone is waiting.
Despite having attracted the attention of a dangerous stalker, Special Agent Jason West is doing his best to keep his mind on his job and off his own troubles.
But his latest case implicates one of the original Monuments Men in the theft and perhaps destruction of part of the world's cultural heritage--a lost painting by Vermeer. Naval Reserve Lieutenant Commander Emerson Harley wasn't just a World War 2 hero, he was the grandfather Jason grew up idolizing. In fact, Grandpa Harley was a large part of what inspired Jason to join the FBI's Art Crime Team.
Learning that his legendary grandfather might have turned a blind eye to American GIs "liberating" priceless art treasures at the end of the war is more than disturbing. It's devastating.
Jason is determined to clear his grandfather's name, even if that means breaking a few rules and regulations himself--putting him on a collision course with romantic partner BAU Chief Sam Kennedy.
Meanwhile, someone in the shadows is biding his time...

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Must admit, started this series reluctantly, wary of this overdone "disliking this stereotypical macho-man but who we are kidding", ( and frankly, because of covers making it look like a cheap erotica)but during few day I devoured it, they both grew on me - how they both reluctantly surrender to their feelings, both careful and standing up for themselves( sarcastic when it comes to Jason), learning to navigate their relationship, and importantly, on a good way to be equal partners despite it all. Their struggle is real and touches upon important matters, and I love it. As mystery and detective part of it. Jason having comradeship with J.J and young agent in previous book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Holy conflict of interest, Jason. It's interesting watching him take actions I really don't agree with while being on his side.
I've really come to appreciate J. J. as well. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Jason and Sam find themselves in the rare circumstance of both being in the same place at the same time as Sam wraps up a task force while Jason investigates the possible existence of paintings looted by an American GI during WWII. Both are looking forward to sharing more than a few times together. Jason’s case forms the entirety of the mystery plot, and he finds that a beloved member of his own family may have been more than "involved". There’s a lot of discussion of history, and art in particular, which I could have done with less of.... but I did really like the case and their task of making sense of it after so much time had passed. The hard sell of the plot though, is the building relationship between Jason and Sam. These two are really great characters.
