Synopsis: Things finally seem to be going well for FBI Agent Lucy Kincaid. She’s just finished training for Hostage Rescue, her husband’s relationship with his son is back on track, and her tense relationship with her boss, Rachel Vaughn, has become much more bearable.That is, until her first hostage case throws everything off track.
When a man who appears under the influence and mentally unstable holds a group of people hostage and dies in a shootout with the FBI, Lucy is assigned to investigate what happened. His descent doesn’t make any sense—he was an upstanding citizen a year ago and only started declining after a series of blackouts and strange occurrences. Even his autopsy seems suspicious, and the body has been cremated without the proper approval. As Lucy investigates, she realizes that this story may be more complicated than she thinks, and her own life might be in danger.
You know a series is good when you’re fourteen books in and still loving it. What starts a standard hostage situation quickly turns into something much more complex involving corporate corruption, greed, manipulation and cover-ups. Add to that a bit of family drama, and you have an intriguing and compelling read. Too Far Gone is an excellent addition to the Lucy Kincaid series, but if you haven’t read the previous books, it can also be read as a standalone. I highly recommend this for readers who enjoy intense suspenseful mysteries, and interesting and relatable characters.

Wow, it is definitely very rare to have a 14 book series still be as a good as this, but it’s certainly not something that is unheard of. I have never read a single book of this series, but it’s nice that this one can be read as a standalone. It makes it easier that way to start checking out a book series 😊
On a more personal note: I’m sorry for not having been visiting your blog in a while and checking in. I did an update post this weekend on my blog, and I will be taking a step back from blogging. I hope you are doing okay Kim, and it’s nice to see that your reviews are as fabulous as ever 😊😊

I do like that when it happens. Then new readers aren’t so intimidated.
And please don’t apologize. I just read your post and left a rather long-winded comment there. 🤗

I just read it, and it was amazing (the comment I mean, not the book lol 😂) And no, it wasn’t long-winded at all, it was truly amazing, and so incredibly kind. I really appreciate it 😊😊
