Review of E M P Honeymoon
In Dorothy Mayer's "EMP Honeymoon: Kelly and Tom," readers are taken on a captivating journey through a world where danger and passion intertwine, creating a thrilling reading experience. Meet Tom, a dedicated cop at the Carson City Police Department, and Kelly, the youngest sister of Senator Mike McBride, armed with a degree in computer science. They are a married couple enjoying their honeymoon in Honduras when Kelly stumbles upon a suspicious lab, leading her to a shocking discovery about the North American power grid. After a harrowing escape from her attacker, Tom, and Kelly embark on a mission to uncover the truth. Assisted by Steve from the CIA and Cynthia's secret team of investigators; namely Sharon and Agatha, they join forces to save the day.
The plot thickens as Dr. Peter Kinney reveals the monumental threat of an electromagnetic pulse (EMP), leaving readers in shock. The sinister ambitions of Dear Leader and General Lee to capture the United States and Canada unfold through their secret operation, Operation Nuclear Winter. Colonel Rhee Su-jin and a team of scientific experts are entrusted with this mission, while Kelly's team opposes them. Additionally, Mike, Cynthia, and Sky play pivotal roles in supporting Kelly's team.
Amidst the chaos and danger, the story is laced with a bit of romance, adding a heartwarming and inspiring touch. The author skillfully portrays the challenges faced in this hostile environment, bringing the world to life with vividness and believability.
The novel excels in character development, with Kelly, Tom, Steve, Sharon, and Agatha being well-crafted individuals, each with their strengths and weaknesses. Their bond grows as they navigate perilous situations together, making readers invested in their journey. Furthermore, the diverse and grounded characters add depth to the narrative.
Mayer's writing style strikes a perfect balance between conciseness and description, allowing the story to progress at a brisk pace while immersing readers in the EMP world. The book masterfully weaves action, romance, and suspense, keeping readers engaged throughout. The EMP setting provides a constant sense of tension and danger, making it an enthralling backdrop.
Humor makes an appearance when General Lee's attempt to compromise Master Sergeant backfires, leading to a comical situation involving fake controllers.
In conclusion, "EMP Honeymoon: Kelly and Tom" is a gripping and passionate journey through a perilous world. Dorothy Mayer's storytelling tugs at the heartstrings while keeping readers on the edge of their seats. Thriller fans will undoubtedly find this book compelling and enjoyable to read.
