![]() ![]() As Dave and Kate try to unravel what happened, her other siblings descend and the dynamics start to get very interesting. Then there’s a massive explosion at O’Hare and Kate becomes a target. As Dave begins to work a case he and Kate are embroiled in, he falls hard. Through a criminal fluke, she meets Dave Richman, a character we first see in the prequel to the O’Malley books, Danger in the Shadows. She’s ferociously tough, tenaciously protective of her family and one of those rare characters that shines through every page with just a few magical words of description or dialogue. She’s a Chicago PD negotiator (the clue was in the title). In this first novel we meet the seven, but the focus falls on Kate. Each of the siblings works on the front lines in some capacity. This allows Henderson to infuse each novel with a very different back-story. ![]() None of them are related by blood, which is a great twist. ![]() The Negotiator begins a magnificent series about the O’Malley brothers and sisters. I have lost half days and sometimes half the night quite easily. Don’t even consider opening a Dee Henderson book if you have anything important to do. The Negotiator is a jaw-dropping work of creativity. ![]()
