Wildwood, Pease - B+

         A few months after the events in Northwoods (May 25th blog post), Eli and Marge begin investigating an apparent murder when the FBI and DEA show up. Once again, the FBI agent is Alyssa Mason. The missing woman was a DEA confidential informant. After a principal in the investigation is found dead, the FBI agent is pulled from the case by higher-ups, and the investigation is declared finished. Eli manages to bring Alyssa back in because the case is far from solved. The finale is twisty, surprising, and very satisfying. Alyssa is promoted to SAIC in Chicago, and she and Eli agree to remain friends. This is a different and interesting series, with a third installment scheduled for next year.
