Danielle Edwards, heir to the impassioned family business, Edwards Auto, in Manheim, Pennsylvania--a comprehensive auto facility that does it all and one of the largest auto wholesalers in the U.S.--moves away to South Texas to sort out her life after the deaths of her father, mother, and grandmother in a mysterious plane wreck. Grandpa Edwards has no clue that Edwards Auto has become entangled in money laundering and smuggling schemes with Mexican cartels. He wants nothing more than for his granddaughter Danielle to take over the business. But Danielle is happy in South Texas where she is enjoying a budding romance with a young Coast Guard officer and is pouring her heart into training her young dancers. Danielle's deceased father, Jacob Edwards, the U.S. Coast Guard officer known as the "Hero of Cozumel" in Mexico, was the target of an assassination attempt during a pirate attack incident near Cozumel years before. Details of the attack don't add up for Jacob's Kings Point Academy roommate, Charles Yeager, who is now the Deputy Director of the FBI in Philadelphia. His search takes him on a hunt for an ominous Russian assassin known as "The Chameleon." Meanwhile, Danielle is stunned when a world renowned Russian dance instructor wants to visit her little dance company to recruit and has invited her and her family on a short cruise to celebrate. But another Russian has planned this to be their last cruise. Will the Edwards family survive? What will become of Edwards Auto? Why does this matter to the cartels? The Good Fight offers a fantastic mix of action, intrigue, syndicated crime, family relations, and romance involving the Coast Guard, FBI, Mexican law enforcement, cartels, smugglers, automobile auction wholesalers, dance teachers, and martial artists.
Review :
I enjoyed how strong and level-headed Danielle was. She was no damsel in distress; she was a strong woman who knew that there was something wrong and she was ready to take charge of the situation to make sure that she found out what was happening. I wanted to root for her and believe in her. Readers Fovorite: Rabia Tanveer
The author's clear knowledge of a wide range of subject matter is also notable - there are not many authors who could write so articulately about everything from FBI investigation procedures and organized crime in Russia to backcountry Wyoming cowboys and the intricacies of the automotive industry. Hendrickson doesn't spend too much time on the procedural aspects of the Coast Guard and FBI, which is where many authors stumble in such novels, and the expertise regarding these organizations comes across subtly and organically. Self Publishing Review:
he writing style was fast-paced and gripping right from the start and I found it difficult to put the book down. While the majority of the storyline was tied up by the end, there was a huge cliffhanger in the last chapter. This will lead in well to the next book in the series. Online Book Club:
