Radiant Angel
Prescient and chilling, DeMille's #1 New York Times bestselling novel takes us into the heart of a new Cold War with a clock-ticking plot that has Manhattan in its crosshairs.
After a showdown with the notorious Yemeni terrorist known as The Panther, John Corey has left the Anti-Terrorist Task Force and returned home to New York City, taking a job with the Diplomatic Surveillance Group. Although Corey's new assignment with the DSG-surveilling Russian diplomats working at the U.N. Mission-is thought to be "a quiet end," he is more than happy to be out from under the thumb of the FBI and free from the bureaucracy of office life.
But Corey realizes something the U.S. government doesn't: The all-too-real threat of a newly resurgent Russia.
When Vasily Petrov, a colonel in the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service posing as a diplomat with the Russian U.N. Mission, mysteriously disappears from a Russian oligarch's party in Southampton, it's up to Corey to track him down. What are the Russians up to and why? Is there a possible nuclear threat, a so-called radiant angel? Will Corey find Petrov and put a stop to whatever he has planned before it's too late? Or will Corey finally be outrun and outsmarted, with America facing the prospect of a crippling attack unlike anything it's ever seen before?

John Corey a retired NYPD Homicide Detective, also has worked with the Feds Anti Terrorist Task Force and now The Diplomatic Surveillance Group. A boring job he had to take in lieu of being terminated. He has a problem with following the rules, dosen’t get along well with Muslims he encounters on the job and follows his own rules. He and his temporary partnerTess a Federal Agent are trying to prevent a nuclear device being detonated in the New York. Harbor by a Russian colonel masquerading as a Russian Embassy official. An excellent read!! enjoyed immensely!!

Good story that moved quickly. Sad to see Kate & John break up with not much revealed as to why.

A good read. Maybe not his best but still worth reading…

I picked up the Lion’s Game at a garage sale, then fell in love with the JC series. But now there’s...this? After reading, it seems like DeMille was pressured by his publisher to crank out a book ASAP. He delivered to the publisher, sure, but not to the public. A great story if read on its own, but a slap in the face to anyone who has read even one book from the John Corey series. Hopefully he will turn things around in the next installment, but if not at least it was fun while it lasted. Yikes.

DeMille has been my favorite author for 25 years. He mailed this one in. I had to force myself to read it to the end. He’s got a lot of making up to do. I hope he can put this dreck behind him and return to the form that stood head and shoulders over fellow writers.
