Assassin drones, a hacker who can bring the entire world's computer networks to their knees, and an ancient link to Vlad the Dracul himself. Add in fast paced action and engaging characters, and this book has everything you would want in a thriller. Coulter has a talent for tying seemingly unrelated elements together into an exciting and hard-to-put-down adventure.

These books are like crack! Outlandish and kinda ridiculous at times, but I can't give them up. This one had twins, cyber warfare, vampires, the voynichese manuscript, drones *and* falcons, and it was amazing and crazy and I loved it. I'm not sure if the book would stand alone to someone who hasn't read the earlier books in the series, but I suspect it's fairly easy to pick up the important stuff.

I have been a huge fan of Catherine Coulter and her FBI thrillers for years. I have read every single one. I was looking forward to reading about Nicholas Drummond and Mike Caine and the rest of the American and British agents in this series. .I started the book and immediately wondered if it really was a true Coulter book. I usually race through her books but this one was one I plodded through. The jumping back and forth along with the vampire theme just really turned me off. I kept going thinking I would eventually get caught up in the story and love the book, but that never happened. The sections that were vintage Catherine Coulter were few but wonderful as always but there were so many sections that were disappointing.

Possibilities.

Alarming. Dreadful. Terrifying possibilities.

For Coulter & Ellison to take history and present, fact and folklore, jumble it together nd come up with this encompassing thriller is nothing short of epic.

This series just keeps getting better!!

I loved and detested the antaginists. I was awe-struck at the plot. I was encompassed with the facts, legends, and paranormal that were woven onto every page. The suspense was indisputable. The Sixth Day is the Renaissance Man of novels!

OK, I’m done gushing. Honestly, though, I’ve always loved Catherine Coulter & she just keeps getting better. It’s
amazing how I can hate political thrillers, except when written by Catherine Coulter.

Nicholas Drummond and Michaela Caine are back at it again in the 5th installment in the Brit in the FBI series by Catherine Coulter and J.T. Ellison. While they are vacationing in England, major political figures start dropping dead in mysterious fashion. It is found that drones are behind these high-profile killings. Dr Isabella Marin is an American who is working in the British Museum and claims to find the missing parts of the Voynich Manuscript, a famous work written in a twin language. Roman Ardelean is an expert in cybersecurity, but is really using his business to infiltrate every major world organization and government for his benefit. He has a twin brother who is severely ill and is desperate for a cure. Did I happen to mention they are descendants of Dracula??? Once the Covert Eyes team is on the case, Ardelean starts his attempt to devastate London. Can the Covert Eyes team stop them yet again?

I am REALLY enjoying these books in this series. I love how each one focuses on a bit of folk lore (this one is Dracula) and manages to pull it into a story as truth and not fiction. Of course, most lore and fairy tales are based on something real... just highly embellished and/or romanticized. My favorite part of this book was the way Marin becomes involved with Ardelean and comes to understand his story and the reason behind the madness. Of course, the way the Covert Eyes team manages to evade death over and over is a little over the top and unlikely, but I'm glad they do. I really can't wait to see what they get involved in next time. Four out of Five stars for me.

Thanks to Gallery Books and Netgalley for providing a copy in exchange for an honest review.

The fifth book in the “A Brit in the FBI” series, The Sixth Day, combines mystery, action, and history into one thrilling novel. Catherine Coulterand J.T. Ellison have done it again with this installment of the blockbuster series of crime and adventure.

FBI special agents and members of the bureau’s Covert Eyes Team, Michaela Caine and Nicholas Drummond are on vacation in England when major political leaders begin dying mysterious deaths. When the Vice-Chancellor of Germany collapses on the steps of the British Prime Minister’s home, a hovering drone is noticed overhead. It quickly becomes clear that a professionally orchestrated assassination plan is unfolding.

The mystery involves cryptophasia (twin talk), a fifteenth century manuscript, a desire to help a sibling suffering from extreme hemophilia, but without and understanding of genetic diseases and modern medicine. Add that to a wealthy, but narssistic cybersecurity genius who takes it upon himself and a group of investors to eradicate ISIS.

Said genius, Roman Ardelean, is a direct descendant of fifteenth century Romanian, Vlad the Impaler who is frequently romanticized as Dracula. Vlad’s half-brothers, twins themselves, suffered from severe hemophilia. It seems that his misguided beliefs are what led to his reputation as a vampire.

Roman is convinced the Voynich Manuscript holds the secret to curing his severely ill twin brother’s blood disorder, and is not above murdering anyone who gets between him and the manuscript.

The Sixth Day was another book that kept me up reading late into the night. It is a fascinating glimpse into the world of cybersecurity and hacking; as well as a reminder of the tragedy of mis-informed old-school beliefs about curing diseases. I must make time to read the first four books of the “A Brit in the FBI” series.

I love the authors previous books in the series and was thrilled to receive this for review from the publisher and Net Galley.
This is book 5 in the “Brit in the FBI” series by Catherine Coulter and JT Ellison. The two authors worked together to blend this story perfectly. As in all the authors work this is non stop action and a very exciting read. The story kept me guessing and unable to put the book down. I look forward to the next in series. This one will have you on the edge of your seat..
My opinions are my own.

This book captures you from the very beginning. The characters are very interesting and believable. I loved all of the twists and turns. Just when you thought you knew where it was going they threw you a curve ball! I think it would make a great movie. I would definitely recommend this book!

I actually give this book 4.5 stars...I am a fan of both Catherine Coulter and J.T. Ellison individually, but this is actually my first reading of a joint text and I really enjoyed it.

Can the quest for peace cause you to cross the line into murder? Nicholas Drummond and his partner Michaela Caine will soon find out in this action packed novel. People are dropping dead on the streets...and no one knows why, until the FBI steps in. Who is killing off political and industrial leaders? And why are people in Europe turning up dead and drained of their blood? Who would think that these two cases would be linked? Has Dracula been resurrected? Or is there another explanation? This is what the team is racing to find out...before the end of the Sixth Day.

Catherine & J.T. do it again in their latest installment of the Brit Series. The novel moved quickly with twist & turns that will keep readers of this series turning the pages. I'm just amazed at what these two can come up in a plot and sub plots. I think this novel & series could be moved to the big screen or TV with great success.

Love these characters and the connection between FBI,MI6, technology and art. I found the technology part a bit cumbersome but it did not keep me from enjoying the book.

I love the Brit in the FBI books and this one didn’t disappoint. I also thought the whole vampire/Dracula thing, while definitely a bit odd for a Coulter book, was an interesting direction for the book. All in all, this is a great book but it’s definitely not your typical Catherine Coulter book so definitely check out all the reviews before buying so you aren’t disappointed. I personally loved it but I also love vampires and such.

This is book 5 in the “Brit in the FBI” series by Catherine Coulter and JT Ellison. I hadn’t read any of the previous ones, but was able to pick up the series without trouble. There is some crossover with Coulter’s “FBI Thrillers” series with a cameo by Savich and Sherlock.

It must be difficult to come up with new plots for government thrillers, but The Sixth Day provided a new twist that was entertaining and fun. I enjoyed the book, and while I wouldn’t class it has intellectually taxing, it was a pleasant way to spend an afternoon reading.

I received access to a copy from NetGalley.

I always love these books and have been following the characters for years. Thanks for not disappointing me - this book was exciting and loved the history and technology!

I have been reading Catherine Coulter since her romance days and have always enjoyed her books. The Sixth Day has a story line that I haven't seen in a book yet. Drones and Birds of Prey, it was interesting to learn about them, but did seem a little out there. I like the characters of Drummond and Mike, but I am looking forward to read the next book that features Sherlock and Savich.

I love the Brit in the FBI series. Parts of the book were a bit slow and took me longer to get through. However, once the action picked up, it was a satisfying read. The ending was exciting and satisfying. Another good book from Catherine Coulter and JT Ellison.

It was good to read another book about the adventures of Nick and Mike. This one intersperses the history of Vlad Dracul III, vampirism, Romanian gypsy lore, possible ties to Rasputin and Bram Stoker with modern day cyberwarfare and very futuristic drone technology.
The plot was quite enjoyable and very fast paced but sometimes, it was hard to keep track of the various intersecting plot lines. I was fascinated by the whole mystery about the Voynich manuscript and how it was ingrained into the evil twins in the story.
My only problem was that the various interactions in the book didn’t feel right , especially the ones between Nick and Mike felt very off and sometimes even silly and not really like them.
But overall, this is a fun read, especially for the fans of the series and I flew through the book in a single sitting.

With all the plot lines and most of them hinting about unrealistic things. I’m not a big fan of my mystery and/ or thriller not being believable. Are main characters are on the hunt for Ramon the owner of a teach company. Who also has a twin. That has problems and Ramon is the only one hat can read an old book, that could save has twin form his illness. Okay so not my favorite book from these two writers, but if you started the series you may have wave your way though to the end, so your not lost if they write another in the series.

THE SIXTH DAY

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book from beginning to end. It was full of adventure and no lack of excitement.

The book is quite complex. Romanian lore, including Vlad Dracula, vampires, and the Voynich Manuscript, is interwoven with modern day warfare of drones, computer hacking, ransomware, and with a very unique use of falconry.

Set in London, this the fifth in the series featuring FBI agents Nicholas Drummond and Michaela Caine. Political assassinations and a massive cyber security attack set them, along with M15, on a thrilling quest stop the attackers. The perpetrators are quite fascinating along with their reasons for committing these crimes.

The way in which the author wove these complex ideas into a well paced and solid story is quite good and admirable. A little bit of fantasy? Maybe, maybe not. Possibly more futuristic in nature. Or frankly, much of it could be happening right now.

I do wish the characters had been more developed, especially the two leads. Many times they seemed a little silly or flippant. Crises were solved too quickly and easily. This may be a matter of personal taste as I prefer a more serious and subtle approach.

But nonetheless I found this book very satisfying and I think it would be enjoyable to lovers of crime adventure novels. I will read more works by this author. I would like to thank NetGalley and the author for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Falcons Drones and Deception. I enjoyed the suspense in this book. This was my first exposure to this series. I think the book stood fine on it's own and I will explore the others. Sometimes it was a little choppy and hard to follow. But I will read more
