The Good Fight

Last Enemy, Book 1

By: Dan E. Hendrickson

Narrated by: Kathy Heath

Danielle Edwards, heir to the impassioned family business Edwards Auto in Manheim, Pennsylvania - a comprehensive auto facility that does it all and one of the largest auto wholesalers in the US - moves away to South Texas to sort out her life after the deaths of her father, mother, and grandmother in a mysterious plane wreck.

Grandpa Edwards has no clue that Edwards Auto has become entangled in money laundering and smuggling schemes with Mexican cartels. He wants nothing more than for his granddaughter Danielle to take over the business. But Danielle is happy in South Texas, where she is enjoying a budding romance with a young Coast Guard officer and is pouring her heart into training her young dancers.

Danielle's deceased father Jacob Edwards, the US Coast Guard officer known as the "hero of Cozumel" in Mexico, was the target of an assassination attempt during a pirate attack incident near Cozumel, years before. Details of the attack don't add up for Jacob's Kings Point Academy roommate Charles Yeager, who is now the deputy director of the FBI in Philadelphia.

His search takes him on a hunt for an ominous Russian assassin known as "the Chameleon". Meanwhile, Danielle is stunned when a world-renowned Russian dance instructor wants to visit her little dance company to recruit and has invited her and her family on a short cruise to celebrate. But another Russian has planned this to be their last cruise.

Will the Edwards family survive? What will become of Edwards Auto? Why does this matter to the cartels? The Good Fight offers a fantastic mix of action, intrigue, syndicated crime, family relations, and romance involving the Coast Guard, FBI, Mexican law enforcement, cartels, smugglers, automobile auction wholesalers, dance teachers, and martial artists.

Entertaining

Story was very entertaining although a little hard to follow. Found some of the geographical facts to be inaccurate.
