A RADICAL WAY TO DIE When security specialist Duke Rogan’s state-of-the-art computer system fails at a controversial bio-tech firm, a raging inferno spreads, and a grotesquely charred body is discovered in the aftermath. With an extremist anti-technology group claiming responsibility, the case grows even more complex when the victim’s autopsy unexpectedly reveals that he bled to death. Heading the FBI’s domestic terrorism unit, Agent Nora English is fiercely determined to track and stop a sadistic assassin.

"I really like Allison Brennan. Her writing style is quick yet descriptive, her characters are engaging and real, and her story matter is alway current and cutting edge (ha!). I plan to read her new, paranormal series regarding the 7 deadly sins (a popular topic, lately) beginning next March. "

    " Another Allison Brennan book that took less than a day to read. Nora's background and how it shaped her as an adult is very interesting, as is her relation ship with Duke. I loved the fact that he had been asking her out for four years. Intense murder/mystery with a sweet love story. Loved it! "

    " Liked this one the best of the Triology. All were good, though. You don't have to read them in any order. None of the characters in any of the book are major in the others. Some have a slight part, but nothing that has to be kept track of to understand the plot. "
