The Troubleshooters are trying to regroup after losing one of their own.  James Nash was a much-loved member and it makes sense that his live in girlfriend, Tess Bailey, would be in deep mourning.  But it has hit Dave Malkoff and Sophia Ghaffari just as hard and has resulted in something no one would have guessed.  Not even the fun loving receptionist, Tracy Shapiro, can find a positive side to this tragedy.  Even their team leader, Lawrence Decker, is acting a bit odd right now.  Has he really taken right up with Tess?

Decker is working on a very secret mission right now.  One that very few people even know anything about.  There is something very off and dangerous going on with The Agency and it seems to involve several of the Troubleshooters.  With the help of FBI friend, Decker is determined to find out just what was behind James’ accident.  Or was it really an accident.  Unusual circumstances have turned what should have been a straightforward and very secret investigation totally upside down and inside out.  The Agency is out for blood, can Troubleshooters and all it’s members make to the end without shedding much of theirs?

Dark of Night begins right where In To The Fire ends.  Decker is trying to keep the majority of the team from knowing about the special investigation he is working.  I could just imagine his shock that with all the specially trained people he was trying to keep unaware of his movements, the one person to see through him was Tracy.  Ms. Brockmann has once again given us a fast paced and very intricate plot that held my attention from the first page to the last.  While I can’t tell you lots about the plot without giving way too much away, I will tell you that she ends up having not one but three happy endings.  As a lover of romantic suspense, I can say that Dark of Night is one book that should be on your must read list.  I will be waiting until the next Troubleshoots adventure.
