This book was A-MA-ZING. Seriously--it was amazing!!!!! Steven James continues his impressive run with his fourth Bowers Files novel.
Patrick Bowers is really a very complex character that I am enjoying to get to know better through the course of The Bishop. I loved how, while he is very passionate about his job, he's more passionate about something else--his daughter. From start to finish, Steven James spins a thriller that will not want to lay down. The Bishop was better than a movie! Any day!
When a Congressman's daughter is found brutally murdered in Washington D.C., FBI Agent Patrick Bowers is called in to help make sense of the madness. Bowers has a knack for catching high profile killers thanks to his controversial use of geospatial investigative techniques. However, this time around Bowers continually runs into dead ends despite his best efforts. Catching one killer is hard enough, but now all the evidence hints at two.

In Patrick's personal life things are no less complicated. Tessa's birth father is back on the scene, Bowers is caught in a dizzying love triangle, and a psychopath from his past pays an unwanted visit. Despite all the obstacles in his path, Patrick Bowers must find a way to do what he does best: catch killers.

This novel's strengths lie in the characters. The first person narrative of Patrick Bowers is nothing short of exceptional, as is James' depiction of the father/daughter relationship between Patrick and his step-daughter, Tessa. Indeed, Tessa has become a fan favorite of the series with her quick wit and intelligence coupled with vulnerability that surfaces at just the right moments. This beautifully flawed relationship has been the glue that holds these stories together and that's certainly the case once again.
