Week 41 Review: Captive

From Goodreads:
Eve Duncan's daughter Jane MacGuire seems to have found a perfect life with Seth Caleb—until a ruthless madman threatens to destroy it all, in this gripping suspense novel from #1 bestselling author Iris Johansen.
 
Jane MacGuire is enjoying a period of domestic bliss as she focuses on her art and her partner Seth Caleb uses his unique abilities as an agent for the MI6 intelligence service.  But when Seth crosses crime lord Hugh Bohdan, he incurs the wrath of one of the world's most powerful criminal empires…one whose tentacles reach across the globe and even to the idyllic Scottish retreat where Jane is working.  
 
Soon Jane is on the run, struggling to stay one step ahead of Bohdan's army and his devastating high-tech weaponry. Even with the assistance of Earl John MacDuff, she finds danger at every turn. But with that peril comes an astonishing a 200-year-old secret on the brink of becoming lost to history.
 
Jane and Seth must join forces to unlock the fascinating puzzle, even as they hurtle toward a lethal final confrontation in the Highlands.  But before their adventure is over, Jane and Seth will encounter their biggest shock of all…and realize nothing can be the same for them ever again. 

My Review:
I love reading Iris Johansen books! This series has been going on for a while, but I'm not tired of it yet, and reading about Jane and Seth, who have finally found happiness together after so much conflict and many books, to be a team together to face this threat was so great to read!

With the Jane and Seth book 2 books ago, I had thought that ended with them together and happy, but I was wrong. But in this book, yes, they are, and I was glad to see it, I'm invested in their relationship. Though they weren't physically together at the start of the book, that didn't matter because they are a team now.



This was another fantastic read and I can't wait to read more by Iris Johansen!
