Every Wicked Man by Steven James is the 11th book in the Bowers
Files, where a criminal mastermind’s chilling terrorist plot forces FBI
Special Agent Patrick Bowers to the brink.
Approaching the second or third book in a trilogy or a book in an
existing series has always been an act of trepidatious yearning. The
cover snaps your head or the title intrigues, but you wonder: Will I be
lost? Will I feel like the new kid in high school listening to the
indecipherable shorthand of the popular kids thus multiplying my
feelings of inadequacy and inferiority, or will I be embraced and feel
immediately at home? Diving into Every Wicked Man and slipping across the first few pages was an organic experience in reading something that feels fresh and new and beautiful.
Every Wicked Man is the 11th book in the Patrick Bowers
franchise, so you can maybe see why I was worried. But never did I feel
lost or not part of the in-crowd. What connections there were to past
experiences—which were few, and you will see the reason why in a
moment—intrigued me.
Patrick Bowers is an FBI agent specializing in environmental
criminology. I wasn’t even aware the specialization existed, but this
interested me because of my own love for the environment. Why does the
FBI need such a specialization? What sort of criminals does Special
Agent Bowers come into contact with? As it turns out, he’s not that kind of environmental criminologist...
