Hidden Agenda ~ Review

Hidden Agenda
Southern Crimes 3
By Lisa Harris

For the last eight months Michael Hunt's family thought he was dead, killed in an explosion while working undercover.  What they thought was wrong and unless something changes soon Michael Hunt will be dead and his family will never know the truth.

The case that Michael has been working on has him deeply embedded with the cartel.  But his cover has been blown and he finds himself on the wrong side of the cartel and the law.  With time running out his only hope lies with the children of the man he has been gathering evidence against.

Olivia Hamilton can't believe that her father is capable of what she's heard.  But there is a life in danger and she can't wait to discover the truth before acting.  The cartel has influence throughout the region and Michael and Olivia don't know who they can trust.

This is a fast paced suspense that will keep you up reading into the waning hours of the night. Deception has filled their lives and they must work through the layers to get to the truth.  But time is short in this battle for control.  Will the cartel rule the day?  Or will the Hunt family finally be reunited?

Hidden Agenda takes place just days after the events in Fatal Exchange.  And while reading the first two books isn't necessary they provide an important back story so that some of the references are more fully appreciated.  And if you have read the previous Southern Crimes books read them again looking for clues you may have missed the first time around.

I was provided a copy of this book by the publisher Revell through their blogger program in exchange for my honest review.

His cover is blown. Now his enemies are on his heels and closing in.

Presumed dead by friends and family, Michael Hunt is alive--and on the run. Presumed dead by friends and family, the undercover assignment he's been working for the past eight months has just been blown. With a hit out on his life and corruption inside the Atlanta police department, Michael finds himself hunted by both the cartel and the law. His only hope is Olivia Hamilton--the daughter of the man who wants him dead.

This nonstop chase from Christy Award-winning Lisa Harris will leave you breathless.
