Book summary

Three years ago, Los Angeles Police Department Bomb Squad member Carol Starkey was killed in a brutal bombing, then brought back to life after two minutes of flatlining. Now, her vitals in full working order, Carol is asked to lead the investigation of another, more recent bombing that killed a former colleague. Sparks fly when she teams up with handsome ATF agent Jack Pell. But the plot really thickens when Carol finally meets her match in Mr. Red, a hopeful FBI Ten Most Wanted List member, protege of fictional madman Hannibal Lecter, and the bomber behind several recent explosions.
