Las Cruces, California is a gritty town full of political corruption and social turmoil. The District Attorney, Rich Danko, is in the midst of a federal probe when a cabal of Washington, D.C. elites, fronted by a sinister FBI agent named Ross, takes an interest in a local double homicide. A young Muslim suspect has murdered two mysterious businessmen in a quiet, upscale neighborhood and for some reason the administration is scrambling to cover it up. Max Siegel lands the case and gets caught in a spiraling vortex of deadly intrigue with a dangerous mix of characters that threaten to consume his career and his life!
My thoughts
Ron Goodreau’s “The Khan Dilemma” is a political thriller that hits home with domestic terrorism and political corruption. I found the story starting slow towards an ending that was well conceived and quite surprising. The characters were top notch. You have district attorney Rich Danko dealing with a federal investigation, prosecutor Max Siegel and his lovely wife Irina. Then there is Detective Dale Cox and Special Agent Ross and why is someone trying to kill Seigel? And then there is the Muslim factor. So much going on; one has to really sit down and delve into this story which wraps up quite nicely at the end.
Disclosure: I received this book for review by the publicist, Jocelyn Kelley at Kelley and Hall Book Publicity. I received no compensation for this review.
