CHINOOK is the sixth instalment in ML Buchman’s contemporary, adult MIRANDA CHASE NTSB military, techno-thriller series focusing on NTSB investigator Miranda Chase and her team of former and current military members. CHINOOK follows Tasia ‘Taz’ Vicki Flores aka US Air Force Colonel Vicki ‘The Taser’ Cortez aka Tanya Roberts in the aftermath of her ‘death’ following an unsanctioned attack on four major drug cartels on the south side of the Mexican border. Believed to not have survived her last mission, six months later, Colonel Vicki Cortez re-invented herself as Tasia Flores, part of a US hotshot wildfire crew, a position that would bring her up close and personal with someone from her past. Enter Jeremy Trahn, the newest member of Miranda Chase’s NTSB investigation team, and the man Tasia would always remember. As the wildfire crew disbanded for the season, Tasia would be forced to ‘work’ with the NTSB as they began in investigation into a series of ‘accidents’ involving Chinook Helicopters, and a jet plane crash on the border of Tawain, a crash meant to start a war. CHINOOK is an infinitely detailed and complex story line rife with military and NTSB language and jargon; a story of vengeance, betrayal, power and espionage; a tale of one woman’s struggle in the aftermath of nineteen years of service to the US Air Force, and the fall-out of who she was, and the future going forward. CHINOOK is an imaginative, riveting and edgy story of a nation on the brink of war for nefarious purposes.

I received this ARC in exchange for a honest review. Chinook, has Jeremy's side story told, plus a reunion with Taz. Jeremy reminds me of the super smart younger brother craving everyone's approval. Miranda is wonderful as always. I love how well this team seamlessly works together. Chinook, is a great addition to the Miranda Chase series. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
