I have enjoyed every book in this series, and Mission Target was no exception. Although it was not as explosive as the previous installments, it delivered an action-packed and suspenseful punch.

In this installment, Jake learns of a new drug that a crazed criminal currently uses as a weapon in a bid to destroy the US population. Jake is determined to stop him, but to do so means taking down the small man. Added to that someone is attacking women who bear an uncanny resemblance to his girlfriend, Sara. Also, someone wants him and his faithful companion dead.

If you decide to embark on this journey with Jake and Cody, prepare for a ride filled with suspense and non-stop action. Fast paced and filled twists and turns, Mission Target will have readers turning the pages.  It will have reader eager to know what lies on the horizon for Jake, Cody and Sara. Jake and Sara’s relationship has gotten stronger. I found Jake’s loyalty to Sara endearing. Women are always throwing   at him, but his loyalty to Sara never wavered. Cody is as protective as ever and he continues to shine. The secondary characters added depth as usual and helped to enhance the reading experience.

Overall, although not my favorite in the series, Mission Target packed a solid punch.  Fans of high-octane action stories will enjoy this riveting tale.
