Genre: Thriller/Suspense/Christian Thriller

Simone Perez, Architect of the Capitol, is stunned when a terrible explosion which rocks the Capitol, totally collapsing the tunnel which connects the House and Senate Chambers and trapping several people. Simone promptly assembles an Interagency Committee to help her assess the damage to the Capitol and develop a strategy to rescue survivors. .  She also assumes responsibility for briefing the press, making her job even more daunting.  As the story unfolds, members of the Committee work together to find survivors and bring them to safety. We meet several true-to-life characters like Fire Chief Earl Bentsen who recognizes that time is of the essence and Rob Tate, a skinny maintenance worker who realizes that he can reach the Café as well as the mechanical room by crawling through an old vent space.  Through several twists and turns, Simone maintains a steady hand, aided by the Speaker of the House, John McIntyre, who finds her very attractive. Although it seems an impossible task, one by one, victims reunite with their families.

My Review of Capital in Crisis:

It was interesting to read about the author and see that she worked for a U.S. Senator for three years in the 1970s. I kept picturing the author right in the middle of the action as I was reading. Would she have done the things her characters did? Did she go through explosion scares or threats of violence like this? This was the first book of Ms. Johnson’s I’ve read and it was really interesting. I already have a list of people I will be telling about this book because I know they will love the mystery, intrigue, political, law enforcement and other aspects all working together to create this story of suspense I will be looking for other books by this author in the near future.

I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit but was not under any obligation to write a review. All opinions are strictly mine.
