The interactions between Stacy and Alex seemed forced. To be frank, I found parts of the novel to be bland. Sometimes it was as if DiAnn Mills was too caught up in the scheme that she lost track of the overall story and further expanding upon the relationships between the characters. The plot was very elaborate, but that both worked for and against it. Could it be a virulent case of the flu…or worse? Terrorism? Biological warfare? I normally enjoy a book with many tiny subplots that lead to a conclusion, but Deadly Encounter was hard for me. Then, finally, a sudden but deadly illness with no obvious cause. A crime-infested, low-income neighborhood. Stacy’s custody battle for a 12-year-old genius of a boy with a wretched family life. There are so many facets to Deadly Encounter.
When they think they have stumbled across a clue, it only leads them into another, more convoluted level of the maze. In a maze of questions, the characters keep running into dead ends. FBI Special Agent Alex LeBlanc and his partner are on the case.īut the tale does not end there. When she stumbles across a body, an injured dog, and a military-grade drone, her life turns upside down. Stacy Broussard is a caring veterinarian who volunteers as an airport ranger on Saturday mornings. That being said, I struggled with this one. The first book of Mills’s “FBI Task Force” series was well written, and I could tell it was well researched. As a health emergency endangers Stacy's community, and the task force pulls in leads from all directions, Alex and Stacy must work together to prevent another deadly encounter.ĭeadly Encounter is the third book by DiAnn Mills that I have read, and thus far – unfortunately – my least favorite. But when her gruesome discovery is only the first in a string of incidences that throw her life into a tailspin, Alex begins to wonder if Stacy was targeted. Even bleeding-heart veterinarians like Stacy. Though FBI Special Agent Alex LeBlanc sees a clear-cut case of terrorism, his past has taught him to be suspicious of everyone, even witnesses. Next to the body is an injured dog, the dead man's motorcycle, and a drone armed with a laser capable of taking down a 747. What she encounters instead is a brutal homicide and a baffling mystery.
