Barry Eisler brings together characters from several books of his to combat a child pornography rings that reaches into the hallowed halls of the U.S. Capitol. A Seattle policewoman is working with a FBI computer specialist who identifies some code in the secret world that he wrote to be used only by a government agency. It is being used to protect the identity of several high ranking government officials and when someone realizes that their secret might be revealed they shut down the operation, kill the consultant, an FBI agent and attempt to kill the Seattle policewoman. When that happens it pulls many mercenaries out of the woodwork to help her. I would like to read some more of Eisler's work, I read one of his books back in 2011. I will be trying to catch up, I particularly like the character of Dox.
