This novel is fast pace. The novel is not that long and only took me a day to read. I thought all the important characters were well developed and the only love scene good. I do wish there was more concentration on the romance bt. the black woman( Jennifer) and white man(Sean). I really wish this was turned into a series or was longer. I think both interracial and suspense readers will like this book. It's just not as intense as I thought it would be.
Unexpected Pleasure

I consider myself somewhat of an eclectic reader. I have my favorite genres, I also have my favorite authors and to that list I'm going to add the name Tracey Tillis. I have never heard of her before, so I really feel like I've found a diamond.I loved the story, the characters were very believable and I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel. Heck, even a series. I'm going to order Tracey's previous titles and this copy is going into my keeper collection.
What an exciting book!

This book has it all-- danger, romance, villainy, and heroism. I was knocked out by it. I'm going to look for Ms. Tillis's other books right now.
Tracey Tillis has done it again!

Anyone who enjoys reading John Sandford's Prey series will enjoy Tracey Tillis's body of work. Her lastest novel, Final Hour is a fast-paced and sophisticated read for anyone who is fascinated by the complex world of political and psychological intrigue. Tillis's next novel can't hit the stands soon enough for this reader.

In Indiana, Roy and Hal follow the delivery truck as it travels towards its destination. When a woman appears in the middle of the back road, the driver and his companion stop to offer their assistance. The delivery personnel good samaritan gesture is instantly paid back in full as Roy executes both of them. Roy and Hal continue to drive the truck until they gain entrance to the estate of former senator Paul Lattimore. Hal and Roy abduct Paul's ten-year-old son Charlie.The FBI assigns Sean Alexander, their best agent, to the highly visible case. However, because his last case ended in failure, Jennifer Bennett is also placed on the investigation team. Sean thinks Jennifer is a news hound who could not care whether a little boy is safely rescued as long as she gets positive press. Jennifer feels Sean is a burned-out has-been, who should take a pension and retire. With their initial reactions so averse to one another, it is a wonder they could work on the same planet. Yet, they not only work well together following every lead, they begin to fall in love. Still a ten-year-old is in the hands of Roy, who would not mind another notch on his belt.FINAL HOUR is a strong romantic police procedural that should entice fans of romantic intrigue and FBI tales. The story line is filled with action that never lets up for even one page. The characters are beautifully developed, especially their initial mistrust and the metamorphosis into a strong, loving team. Tracey Tillis has written a great romantic intrigue that if categorized as a police procedural, would require sequels.Harriet Klausner
