The Last Second A Brit in the FBI Book 6 edition by Catherine Coulter JT Ellison Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews

• I'm obviously in the minority here, and I've enjoyed the other books in this series. But the dialogue is so contrived and flat, and the premise so unbelievable, that I returned the book at the 50-percent mark. I just didn't want to invest any more time in it with so many other books out there to read.
  
  Very disappointing.
• The ninth Coulter book I've read, this one uses mental illness and space aliens to challenge the collaboration of CIA, FBI, NASA, plus British contemporaries as well as SriLanka colleagues. Known characters from other episodes confront the worst of conditions. The deranged and brilliant astronaut plus her friend who learned her skills with the Irish Republican Army, stay one step ahead for most of the story. Their trusting financier Broussard has a very sick daughter who wants the Holy Grail stone as much as the astronaut does.
  About the ending, the stone goes to the sick daughter. I wish to suggest an addition. The very rich and trusting man should establish quality-of-care, smart residences for people like his daughter. In the USA, an ....Residence Initiative seeks such medical homes in each of fifty States. Since the rich man lives on Ille de la Cite, maybe Europe also could develop specialized residences. Read the book to find the name of the disease.
  As fanciful as the story seems, it may not be science fiction after all.
• I am ambivalent about this book. Part of the problem with the book is the fact that I read it after I read a book that was very intense from the very beginning. Since this one wasn’t, it took me a while to get into it. I don’t believe that The Last Second is different in any significant way from the other Brit in the FBI books or Catherine’s other FBI books. Once the story changed from the back story of Dr. Patel to Mike and Nick it was much better. The part I liked was the way Mike and Nick work together. No matter what happened to them, they were there for each other. I gave it four stars.
• I've read all of the Brit in the FBI books and I was quite looking forward to this book further developing the characters. But instead, it seems as if Ellison/Coulter have a contract to fulfill and they don't care to satisfy readers with a book we can enjoy. SPOILER alert Once again Nicholas Drummond and Michaela Caine have to save the world from the science-fiction fantasy of a villain that believes that aliens are coming to save her while the Holy Grail aka Heaven Stone gives her immortality. Save your money and find a new author(s) and series to read - this one has played itself out.
• Nicholas Drummond and Michaela Caine are back to save the world - this time from a former astronaut who claims to have contacted aliens ...
  This storyline mixes the delusions of a woman and the so-called heaven stone or Holy Grail. Both fascinating topics.
  Mike and Nicholas get involved in this case when their friend Grant is lost while protecting a wealthy businessman/adventurer after the ship disappears with all hands - and ends up in the middle of an attempt to take over the world. Once the chase is on, Mike and Nicholas race to avert Armageddon.
  My only criticism is that there is a slow start - but once everything starts moving it moves at a frantic pace. The storyline is very believable and caused hours of lost sleep (one more chapter syndrome).
  Sadly, Ms. Coulter has stated this is the last book in the series - gonna miss Nicholas and Mike.
• Ms. Coulter & Ms. Ellison have had my attention for ages and since the first Brit in the FBI book, even more so. They work well together to make the books enjoyable and believable. This book was no exception. I was worried, at first, that Nicholas & Mike would be 'fighting' aliens - I was quickly relieved to discover that it was only someone who believed in aliens, but that's all I'm saying so as not to ruin the book for other readers.
  
  By the time I finished the book, I was already anxious to find out when the next one would be out and where it would take me. But then, I always feel that way after any book that Ms. Coulter or Ms. Ellison writes. I have been thankful for years that they share their wonderful talent and stories with the world. Please never stop!
• Mike and Nicholas are the real story in these books. I believe the dual authors are trying a bit too hard to come up with an event for them to investigate. The treasure hunt for the Hoily Grail was much more interesting than a crazy former astronaut trying to take out the power grid. I enjoyed the book but feel the lead characters need more development.
• The beginning was a little slow but then really picked up. I really enjoy agent Drummond and agent Caine. I think their relationship is great and would like it explored more fully.
