Червена зона

Dr. Sylvia Strange #5

by Sarah Lovett, Петър Герасимов (Translator)

Лондон, Амстердам, Санта Фе: загадъчни смъртни случаи в секретни лаборатории, които работят за военните, палят червената лампичка на ФБР. Разследването стига до привлекателната и харизматична д-р Кристин Палмър. Световноизвестен учен, д-р Палмър има достъп до ужасяващи невротоксини.
ФБР пуска в играта елитен екип профайлъри: психолога д-р Силвия Стрейндж и експерта по антитероризъм Едмънд Суитхарт. Разследването въвлича Силвия в бездна от подозрения. И когато разбира, че партньорът й крие важна информация, вече не знае кой е приятел и кой предател? Защото невротоксините са цел №1 за международна терористична мрежа.
Последният отчаян ход: да примамят убиеца с жива стръв.
Самата Силвия Стрейндж.

Reviews

[Kathy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very interesting

[Evelyn · Rating 4 out of 5]

When forensic psychologist Dr. Sylvia Strange is asked to profile a suspected serial poisoner working for the government, a game of cat and mouse ensues.

Complex characters, highly suspenseful. Series best when read in order. Recommend.

Great set-up, but the story fell apart in the end.
