Stray Bullets by Robert James had me hooked from the start! I really enjoyed the character development. In this book, you follow an assassin (Ian) through a thrilling and dangerous overseas mission as his family is experiencing their own turmoil back in the US. Ian’s family doesn’t know who he really is, but his past begins to be dug up in this suspenseful thriller. This puts Ian and him family in jeopardy. Stray Bullets is the first book in the series, which is important to note going into reading. I, otherwise, would not have been satisfied with the ending. I look forward to reading the next one! Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an advanced reader copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

An interesting thriller that combines two story lines of the assassin and family man. The ending was a bit strange but can be a possible setup for future story lines. I think this story line has some POP and may really take off.

I was given this book by NetGalley for an honest opinion-
This book was a wild ride! Ian has led a double life in a secret government program. His next mission Dubai. When his wife is murdered things are hitting too close to home. His son is seeking the answers to who murdered his mother. Will he find out about his father or worse? This was a page turner of excitement!

Not my usual choice of read but the character development just sucked me in to the plot. Really riveting stuff. Good job there will be a sequel because I wouldn't have been happy with the ending otherwise.

Great first book in the series. We meet a seemingly mild-mannered sales rep who just happens to be one of the government’s best assassins. While he is overseas, his family must live without him, not knowing who/what he really is. We follow him through another dangerous mission while also following his family’s issues at home. The story pulls all together very well and as an added plus gives us a teaser leading to the next book in the series.
