Drones, drones and more drones! Plus computer hackers, falcons, vampires and more! I have to say, this writing duo takes this series in a different direction with every book and this was a wild ride. Heads of state are being assassinated and drones are spotted in the area. A crazy mastermind is behind it because, of course. FBI Agents Nicholas Drummond and Michaela Caine are on the case, and it’s complicated by the fact that everyone’s tech equipment has been compromised. Imagine having to go back to not being able to use cell phones or computers safely. Hard to do! The villain this time was a bit kooky and there sure were a lot of falcons(!?), but I quite enjoyed the thriller aspect of it. A fun ride!

Nicholas Drummond and Michaela Caine are back in another thriller. This one is set in England and involves the Voynich Manuscript, drones and falcons. Very exciting and easy read.

This is an interesting novel about the Voynich manuscript. I don't know much about the manuscript. This really wasn't for me. It really all goes down in 4 days. Important people die, and the investigators need to figure out who and why before the president travels to London.
It talks about the descendants of Dracula and how they can cure a generational disease found in one of the twins.

I loved it!!! This is one of my favorite book series and each book is just as good as the last. I love how historical and current well known figures are brought into the story. I also enjoy that they based the story on an actual written document that is surrounded by the same mystery of being written in a unknown language or code. I very much enjoy that there is a supernatural element to the book that not only gives a new story for Vlad Dracul but a new story for the origins of the Voynich Manuscript.

The Sixth Day by Catherine Coulter and J. T. Ellison
Nicholas Drummond and Michaela “Mike” Caine are at his London estate for brief vacation. When a high-ranking political figure dies mysteriously, they are charged with the investigation. Meanwhile, there is a soon-to-be-connected mystery regarding the historical Voynich Manuscript. Dr. Isabella Marin becomes embroiled as she is an expert at the twin language associated with the Manuscript. At the bottom of all of this, is Roman Arderlean, wealthy cyber-security genius, who has a very ill twin brother. He is hoping that the secrets of this Manuscript will cure his twin.
Roman is also creating an army of drones, and he is hell-bent on using those drones to achieve whatever purpose he sets out. Anyone that will get in the way of this goal is collateral damage. This includes Nicholas and Mike, as their investigation proves fruitful from the start.
In this thrilling story, quite a bit of lore is interjected. For starters, Roman is a descendent of Romanian Vlad the Impaler, know as Count Dracula. Also, Roman is a falconer, one who artfully trains falcons. Add this to his work with drones and he is more than lethal.
This story hits the ground running, and hardly leaves you with a moment to catch your breath. I love the twists and turns that this fifth entry in A Brit in the FBI series has taken.

So I have read all of this series and this one was my lest favorite one-needed alot more Nicholas and Mike action. The blood stuff was a little much, but when Nicholas and Mike were doing their thing it was great.
