MWSA Review
The Bureau by Dale Kelly is a fast-paced crime novel chock-full of law enforcement procedural action and adventure. Protagonist Sean Hurley, an experienced FBI agent in Chicago, takes on a new assignment in Dallas, Texas, with a multi-agency task force. His target: a dangerous outlaw motorcycle gang who may have been involved in the murder of a judge.
While excited at the new challenges awaiting him in Texas, Sean has distractions in his personal life when his live-in girlfriend, Angie, returns to Lebanon to “help her people” and is kidnapped by Hezbollah. He’s torn between his responsibilities to the new job and the need to find Angie.
As fate would have it, while in Texas, Sean accidentally bumps into Dominique, a former love interest in Vietnam. Hearts pound and love is rekindled. Author Kelly throws in a twist when Dominique, who works for a French intelligence agency with contacts in Beirut, offers to help Sean look for his girlfriend, Angie.
Sean only has a limited amount of time to look for Angie, and people in the government want the culprit(s) responsible for the judge’s murder off the street.
Readers: fasten your seatbelts, you are in for a bumpy ride with The Bureau.
