Covert Threat (A Gray Ghost Novel Book 5) by Amy McKinley is a wicked tale of cat and mouse, life and death and twisty. Amy has done an excellent job of keeping us on the edge of the seat trying to work out what is happening and what is supposed to be an easy job turns into something much more deadly. Is she going insane or is there something much more sinister going on? I love the Gray Ghosts, I mean who doesn’t love a SEAL? And Amy writes a SEAL so, so well.
Jules isn’t sure if she is going insane. With everything going on she doesn’t know who to trust but when her big bad bodyguard is assigned to her she hopes like h*ll that he can keep her safe but that’s not all she hopes.
As the threats escalate Trev does everything he can to keep her safe but she is a hard one to keep out of trouble. Not only that but something is off, something that none of them saw coming.
Amy has given us another excellent book in the series.
