Review:
Nobody understands the workings of the FBI mind better than Paul Lindsay, who was an agent before he took to writing thoughtful, action-packed thrillers such as Code Name: Gentkill and Witness to the Truth, (both available in paperback). Special Agent Mike Devlin, the hero of Lindsay's Freedom to Kill, at first comes off as a rule-breaker and taker of unnecessary risks as he pursues a smart and nasty heavy called the Freedom Killer--an urban terrorist dedicated to inspiring fear in everyday occurrences, such as taking kids to Disneyland or giving someone an aspirin. But Devlin's relationship with his partner, a computer genius with multiple sclerosis, and with the Freedom Killer himself reveal aspects of his personality that quickly make him believable and admirable.
