6. Halfway through

Ghost Country by Patrick Lee. It's the middle of a trilogy, which doesn't have an over-arching name.

The first is Breach, and the third is Deep Sky. The entire adventure starts when Travis Lee, a recently paroled Travis Chase (ex-cop who committed a murder) comes upon a crashed 747 whose crew and passengers were murdered. One of the dead is the First Lady of the United States. Complications then ensue.

What I like best is that the first book is complete in itself. At the end, the core problem has been solved and everyone could live happily ever after. But the second book picks up a couple of years later and there are more complications. So far I'm really enjoying the series. I read the first one slowly, reading a couple of others while The Breach sat on my nightstand, and I read a few pages every evening. I do need to finish up a book that needs to get back to the library, but finishing these books is my essential reading priority this week.
