Leels Loves Books Book Reviews

I love John Mefford and I have loved all of his series. This is book 3 in the Alex Troutt series and while I felt this one was a little slower than usual and a little more hard to follow, I still loved it and can’t wait for more!

In AT Once there seems to be a lot more going on. First off, I want to note that I don’t think I fully figured out who was at the door at the end of the last book. Just saying.

While we are on the hunt for another murderer, Alex is asked… well, demanded… to observe her superior as he is thought to have a hand in some of the going ons. Putting Alex in a difficult place of trying to work two crimes at one time all the while not letting anyone know that she was “investigating” their superior.

There were a lot of characters in this book that were involved and I did find myself having a little bit of difficulty keeping them all straight, but none the less, the entire read was shocking and surprising. I think by far my favorite part was the ending, but I can’t tell you why. It would ruin a wonderful surprise!

Also available
AT Bay (An Alex Troutt Thriller, Book #1)
Alexandra Giordano never knew she had it so good. Until it was all gone in an instant.

As she begins her daunting quest to uncover the black spots on her memory, what she finds isn’t sweet or charming or even pleasant. And that’s when she begins to question everything, including herself.

Her work as a Special Agent for the FBI is only a distraction, serving as a mental metronome…anything to crank the gears of her feeble mind.

And then it happens—a bizarre, ritualistic murder. She loses herself in her work, fully immersed in the investigation. Unable to recall even her own kids, she’s somehow able to formulatecoherent theories on what type of person could pull off such a sickening act.

As her mind slowly plugs a few memory gaps, her emotions are scrambled by the reality of herworlds colliding. And the resulting explosion tears her in two.

Can she pick up all the incendiary fragments to solve the twisted crime while she clings to somesemblance of sanity?

One woman can only keep so much…AT Bay.

AT Large (An Alex Troutt Thriller, Book #2)
The pursuit of the truth. The hunt for a life.

For the first time in months, FBI Special Agent Alex Troutt feels almost normal, hanging out at a local bar with friends after work. Not long into the evening she stumbles over one of the most disturbing images she has ever seen.

And that’s only the beginning.

A body is found in Lowell, the human damage, once again, inconceivable. Hours later, another strike. Pushing heartache aside, Alex immerses herself in the investigation. But with every new clue comes a new twist.

With the killing spree drawing the attention of every intelligence and law enforcement agency in a five-state radius, Alex is forced to partner with an egomaniac from the CIA. Yet, even with limitless resources, every step forward proves to be a step too late, the kill list seemingly endless.

Once the killer makes it personal, Alex is left with no other option—she must confront the person who destroyed her life to try to cease the vicious murders. And when she finally learns the killer’s end game, every second counts if she has any hope of stopping the brutal killings.

The hunt will end. Will Alex?
