Book Review By Harriet Klausner
The Shaughnessey Accord by Alison Kent



Kensington Brava, Nov 2004
ISBN: 0758206704

In Manhattan Tripp Shaughnessey of the Smithson Group is bored and a bit envious that his friend and fellow member of the elite five, Christian Bane, has had success with covert operations against Spectra. Perhaps the only thing he is enjoying at the moment is flirting with Glory Brighton, owner of a sandwich shop.

While Tripp obtains a delicious kiss from the restaurateur, Danh Vuong leads other thugs on a raid of the sandwich shop. His boss believes that Glory has something he needs in his war with Spectra. The police arrive before Danh and associates finish their assault. They take hostages, but had not reckoned that Tripp, an alleged engineer, turns into a super operative, and saves Glory.
