Paradox is #22 in the FBI Thriller series, but the first one I've read. It was a quick, enjoyable read.
The main characters are Sherlock and Savich, a married couple, who thwart an attempted kidnapping of their young son. In the meantime, Chief Ty Christie witnesses a murder on the lake from the deck of her cottage.
When they drag the lake, they find a lot of old bones, and so the FBI (Savich) is called in. There are some twists and turns. The killer is known as the characters investigate. It has been a while since I read this and I don't remember many details. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, but pretty much my experience with thrillers of this type.
I'm not a big detective series reader. Usually one or two books then I move on. I would be willing to experience these characters again, but not 21 more times! Also, just FYI, Savich has "visions" that help solve these crimes. I was OK with it, but some may think that is kind of a cop-out. Just sayin'...
If you are looking for a new set of police/detective characters to follow, Paradox would be worth a try. Nothing spectacular, but certainly kept my interest.

Hmmm. I like the idea of an FBI/cop series, but only 3 stars? Might skip this one. I've been watching Bosch (copy/FBI series) this past week and am really enjoying it.
