Wow! Combine action, mystery, state secrets, an accountant who fights like a ninja, and a bit of romance and what do you get? You get an awesome story by Davis Bunn, titled Rare Earth. It has been a long time since I read any books from Davis Bunn and I have to say this one was excellent.
Marc Royce, a young widower, has experienced danger. And his skills show easily that he knows how to handle himself, but now he is in the middle of something that is testing every skill he has. Sent to Africa, undercover in a private company, he is finding that something is very wrong. Tribes are being displaced from their villages, promises are not being kept to tribal leaders, a man has disappeared, and the company he works for seems to have a division that is crooked somewhere. Ordered out of the country by the company, he goes to Israel to help understand what is going on. Once he figures it out, now he has to solve the problem.
This book is intense!! Just to clarify, the action adventure factor is HOT!, the storyline is intriguing!, the characters are totally believable and convincing, and top it all off with a hint of romance, and you have a 5 star story! I loved the book and anxiously look forward to more from Davis Bunn!
