I couldn't wait to pounce on Broken Shield and I was not disappointed. JD Rhoades has written another exciting plot with likable and believable characters.Deputy Sheriff Tim Buckthorn would like to believe that his town will never be subject to the horrendous events of two years ago, but trouble comes calling again. A responsible woman in the town picks up a photo which has blown many miles from a tornado area. The photo shows a young girl, gagged and tied to a chair with a two-day old newspaper leaning against her chest. There is no time to waste...No spoilers! Tim Buckthorn, Tony Wolf and his work partner, Leila Dushane battle with the criminals, the FBI and another county's sheriff's department in the race against time to identify and rescue the young woman.The romantic aspect of this novel is delicately and gently handled - good for you, Mr Rhoades - and I highly recommend Broken Shield as an excellent, fast read.I have high hopes of another in this series. Maybe Mr Rhoades is right now, working his fingers to the bone on the computer crafting another Wolf novel! Wouldn't mind another Buckthorn one either.
