ASAC Steve (Mac) McKenzie is out to prove himself by leading a task force investigating a series of murders in the heart of Washington, DC. His undercover work in an antigovernment compound twenty year earlier is related—as is the sweet, innocent girl he befriended back then. Now that girl is a beautiful woman, and she has something to hide. Tess Fallon spent a lifetime trying to outrun her family’s brand of bigotry, but someone is threatening her anonymity by using the anniversary of her father’s death to carry out evil crimes and she’s terrified her younger brother is involved. She sets out to find the truth and comes face-to-face with a man she once idolized, a man she thought long dead. As the crimes escalate it becomes obvious the killer has an agenda, and Tess and Mac are running out of time to stop him. Will the perpetrator use a decades-old dream of revolution to attack the federal government? And will the fact that Tess and Mac have fallen hard for each other give a cold-hearted killer the power to destroy them both?

REVIEW

By John W. Kurtze

Toni Anderson’s newest release COLD MALICE has a riveting storyline and great character development with fast moving action from the first page to the very last.   Anderson gives her readers a story full of action, mystery, intrigue, and romantic suspense.  When her readers turn the first page, the author immediately begins describing the thoughts of a terrorist plotting to take down the federal government.  The author’s unknown assassin/terrorist sets in motion the plot to start a revolution to over throw the United States.    Anderson keeps readers guessing the terrorist’s identity is giving readers additional details towards identifying the terrorist as the story progresses.

Anderson increases the momentum into high gear intensifying the FBI investigation of the assassinations bringing Mac to Tess together.  She creates a romantic sub plot focusing on trust issues and Mac’s dedication to the FBI.  The author keeps bringing them together and after Tess almost loses her life working with the investigation with Mac.  Mac realizes Tess is someone special and begins pursuing Tess. The author turns the investigation upside down when Mac’s investigation uncovers a connection showing the terrorists are following Tess’s dead father’s plan to attack the federal government. The investigation is thrown a curve when clues surface suggesting to Mac that the assassinations could be just a smoke screen.  Readers enjoy seeing their favorite characters for earlier Cold Justice books joining the investigations and come to Mac’s aid, as one of the victims assassinated is Mac’s ex-wife.

COLD MALICE’s plot is full of twists and turns keeping Anderson’s readers in the dark as which way the story is moving.  Anderson changes the direction of storyline creating a sense of urgency placing her readers on pins and needs.  Tess and Mac are not sure if they have identified the terrorist leader.  Tess knows time is running short since she is the only one who can identify the terrorist leaders it is up to her to keep looking.  Anderson’s readers are sitting on Tess’s shoulder holding their breath as they keep turning each page hoping to see a clue unveiling the terrorists’ name and or Tess recognizing the terrorist in time their intent.  Anderson adds tension and intrigue making her readers fasten their seat belts for the impact of the last minute action.  COLD MALICE  is must read and earns a five-star ranking.
