Winter Reading 2021 Operation Navajo: A Tracker Novel

The agents from the Tracker unit are hard at work once again. This time readers find the team working on an assassination plot to take out the head of the Federal Reserve just as plans are nearing completion to reestablish gold-backed currency. The timing can't be a coincidence, so with some help from a few agents who are gifted financial analysts, they begin to unravel the plot.

This is a fast-paced thriller with each character playing a role that takes advantage of their strengths - whether that is finance, computer programming, explosives, etc. Scott runs the entire team with confidence in their skills and he also gets a little help from contacts in other agencies that have stumbled upon various pieces of the conspiracy. Readers get the sense that when the good guys put their heads together, it will all be over for the villains except finding out the length of their prison sentences.

After reading A u 7 9 and first meeting the Tracker unit within that book, I was pleased to find this story just as enjoyable. I read it through in one sitting, wanting to see how the agents solved the crisis. One of the things I really liked was the prominence of female agents in the team and the key roles they played. Nicki has amazing computer skills, Savannah understands finances and banking reports, and there is an undercover operative who has created her own version of Navajo Codetalk. These aren't women who just sit behind a desk either - they are out in the field and in just as much danger as the men. 

A great read for fans of Catherine Coulter's FBI thrillers or A Brit in the FBI series.
