Runner, A Jane Whitefield Novel ReviewI've read just about everything by Thomas Perry, and the Jane Whitefield books are my favorites. The brilliant Native American woman who takes people "out of the world" is back with an exciting new case. It's been a few years, and Jane must adjust to new realities (post-9/11 security systems, new Internet tracking capabilities, etc.) to help an abused, pregnant woman disappear from the ruthless people who are looking for her.
Perry knows Jane Whitefield inside and out, and everything she does in these adventures just rings true. Every new book is like a visit with an old friend, which is how I think of her. She uses her common sense while avoiding the thousands of mistakes most of us would make (phones, email, GPS, Internet, etc.) in making other people vanish without a trace. Of course, the modern world makes vanishing increasingly difficult, and Jane has to strive to keep ahead of all the latest technology that is her profession's enemy. This makes her a bit of an old-fashioned throwback--but it also enables her to get the job done. RUNNER is a fascinating addition to this wonderful series. Recommended.

Betrayal: An Interactive Novel ReviewBetrayal is a hair-raising page-turner, a beautifully constructed novel rooted firmly in a little-known historical context, that of American experimentation with chemical and nuclear weapons iin the far north. Kathy Kaluk, daughter of a New England mother and an Eskimo father, returns to her native Alaska to take a research job, and is soon doing more research than her superiors want her to do. The involvement of the FBI, not only in covering up the tremendous damage caused by testing in the arctic but in efforts to recruit student moles, is described in harrowing detail, as are the effects of radioactive material on traditional hunting grounds where animals become radioactive by eating contaminated grass and people who eat the animals die of radiation poisoning. This is a thorough exposé, presented in very interesting and readable form.Betrayal: An Interactive Novel Overview ‘We have to distrust each other. It is our only defense against betrayal.'Deep in a rugged section of Alaska, something's making people ill. It's cancer - and it's striking dozens of laborers and soldiers who worked there on a nuclear cleanup site. But when anti-nuclear activist Carrie Graham turns up evidence of the improper disposal of radioactive waste, it reveals something even more sinister. And the U.S. government will stop at nothing to prevent the information's release, even if it means putting an end to Graham's activities - permanently. A multi-voiced science thriller with far-reaching implications, Betrayal follows the repercussions stemming from nuclear, biological and chemical weapons tests during the early days of the Cold War and beyond. From spirited protests at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Northern California, to treacherous intrigue waged inside the ivory towers of academia, Betrayal takes you inside the struggle to expose a massive nuclear cover-up where even those on the same side don't dare trust each other.Truly an interactive novel, Betrayal is fully integrated with the Web site: www.betrayal-interactivenovel.com.

Double Blind ReviewDouble Blind is the third entry into the Henry Lightstone series by Ken Goddard. Goddard seems to be slipping with each succesive entry in the series. Goddard started with an idea that had a lot to offer, but in the end the result is disappointing. Lightstone and his team of Federal Wildlife Agents are set up for elimination by a crack team of ex-military "hunter-killers". Lightstone is a good character and he is surrounded by an interesting cast of characters. Goddard's experience in Law Enforcement is readily apparent in his writing. The story begins to drag when Lightstone's team attempts to set up their undercover operation. Goddard spends a great deal of time with this device and it does nothing to progress the story. Goddard continually refers to Lightstone as the team's "wild-card agent", along with several other similar monikers, throughout the story and it really begins to grate on your nerves. I was left feeling cheated with a quick ending that tied-up all of the loose ends too easily. Goddard spent 450+ pages setting up a showdown which never materialized. Double Blind was not Goddard at his best, but he is still a lot better than many of the authors in this genre. Readers interested in Goodard's better books should read Balefire, Cheater, and Prey.Double Blind Overview

Heaven's Keep: A Novel (Cork O'Connor Mysteries) ReviewOpinion Only - No Story Spoilers
This is the ninth novel in the Cork O'Connor series, and wouldn't be the best starting point for new readers into the series. This book takes a different approach than his others do and depends (to a point) on the reader being familiar with the characters already. Having read the series to date, I really enjoyed the story, and read it in two days. The first half of the book has little character development (ninth book in the series), and jumps right into the story of the disappearance of and search for Jo O'Connor and others, and Cork's coming to terms with the situation. The second part of the book is more like the rest of the series. Overall, I found it captivating and an easy read that became hard to put down.
I had the feeling that Thunder Bay would be the last in the Cork O'Connor series after completing it and was pleasantly surprised by the release of the next book, Red Knife, which I really enjoyed as well. This latest turn in Heaven's Keep may mark the end, or it may in fact mark a turning point toward a new direction in a series that might otherwise be limited by geographic location and relative isolation.
William Kent Krueger's Cork O'Connor series was recommended to me by Amazon about the time that Blood Hollow came out, because I had enjoyed series novels by Steve Hamilton and C.J.Box. After purchasing and enjoying Iron Lake, I ordered the next three novels in the series and enjoyed each book better than the last, and felt that WKK's writing improved with each one. Each story is built slightly off the last one, as series are prone to do, while still remaining fresh and captivating. While sometimes series characters tend towards unbelievability in terms of the number and type of events over the entire series, Krueger stays on the inside of this curve (and we as readers should generally allow a bit of flexibility -who wants to read books about a 32 year veteran cop who never even had cause to unholster his weapon?).
Good to read on their own, but much better to read in order, the Cork O'Connor series is:
Heavens Keep - 2009
Red Knife - 2008
Thunder bay - 2007
Copper River - 2006
Mercy Falls - 2005
Blood Hollow - 2004

Global Reset: A Suspense Novel ReviewGlobal Reset is an entertaining and suspenseful story filled with lots of action and interesting facts from around the world. Some of the characters could perhaps have been better developed but the book was nonetheless a great read. Less technobabble than the typical Clancy but the main character, Peter Walker, is more like Jack Ryan than a Bond/Ludlum hero. What I liked about the book was that Raybourne was able to write a suspenseful story without resorting to graphic language, violence and sex. The plot was also quite interesting and raised some potentially scary political scenarios. I read the last 150 pages - the best part of the book - in one sitting as I couldn't put the book down. The final scene was amazing. I strongly recommend Global Reset to readers who look for commercial entertainment and suspense in an international setting.Global Reset: A Suspense Novel OverviewIs it possible that one single individual could ultimatelydetermine the fate of our increasingly fragile planet? Explosive populationgrowth, a dramatic shift in the global economic equilibrium, acceleratingtechnology advancements, global warming, and escalating political, cultural andreligious tensions all contribute to making this world gradually more volatile.Could these terrifying and complex issues spark a catastrophic event that wouldset us back 200 years or more? Is it possible that the United States, perhapseven the White House, could somehow be the catalyst for such a horrifyingapocalypse? Raybourne explores this chilling scenario in his debutfiction thriller, Global Reset. Asoftware entrepreneur, Peter Walker, is unknowingly drawn into a treacherousmaze lined with murders, terrorism and high-tech sabotage, but does not realizehe is nothing but a pawn in much bigger plot designed to destabilize the world.He soon becomes the target of assassins and ultimately the entire U.S.government and, while desperately fighting to stay alive, travels the globe inan attempt to unravel the intricate web he finds himself trapped in. In theend, it is left to Peter to avert the imminent global Armageddon. Inspiration for the book came from the author's manytravels and provides the reader with a suspenseful and entertaining yetthought-provoking and interesting story. The exciting plot is set in a backdropof current global issues, domestic politics and high technology. Global Reset is a fast-paced suspensenovel that takes the reader on an electrifying journey filled with surprisingtwists and turns to every corner of the world.Please visit my web site www.nickraybourne.com for moreinformation.I hope youenjoy the book! -Nick

Missing Persons #3 The Venetian Policeman ReviewAfter reading the first and second mysteries in this series, I couldn't wait to get my hands on the third, and I am now waiting impatiently for the fourth. These books are really enjoyable, and I especially like the fact that they do not talk down to the teen audience they are directed at. True, I'm not in that teen audience anymore, but that didn't stop me from being thoroughly delighted with these books. I would highly recommend them as gifts for young teen readers.Missing Persons #3 The Venetian Policeman OverviewAfter assuming new identities and hitting the road to escape their wicked stepmother, New York City natives Sophie and Sam find themselves calling small-town Venice, Indiana, home.

The Justice Game ReviewBased on a real-life case attorney Randy Singer tried ten years ago, The Justice Game artfully portrays both sides of the gun rights debate. Interestingly, Singer didn't set out to convert anyone. He told me, "I wanted to write a book so balanced that both sides would look at it and say, `That fairly represents our case.'"
The Justice Game opens in TV news reporter Rachel Crawford's point of view. A crazed gunman named Larry Jamison, the subject of a scathing news report, barges into the studio and shoots Rachel dead. The crime is clearly caught on film, but it's not the killer who ends up in court during The Justice Game. Rachel's grieving husband sues the manufacturer of Jamison's assault weapon for her wrongful death. He believes they are responsible since they knew the gun store who sold the weapon was known for illegal straw sales.
But this story isn't about Rachel as much as it's about young and ambitious defense attorney Jason Noble and up-and-coming prosecutor Kelly Starling. Both believe in their clients. Both are on top of their games. And both have pasts worthy of blackmail. Mix in the intriguing concept of a cutting edge company who predicts the outcome of trials for financial gain using shadow juries, and you have a true Randy Singer plot--full of delightful twists and turns you never saw coming.
Pay careful attention during the beginning chapters. Because so many of these concepts are unfamiliar, and many key players aren't introduced until later in the story, there's the potential for confusion. But there's also a great glimpse into the fascinating aspects of shadow juries and we come to understand why gun control is such a visceral issue to so many. At times you'll find yourself nodding in agreement with the defense as they present their case; then you'll empathize with the prosecution as they present theirs. Which just goes to show Singer has succeeded in what he set out to write--a novel that evenly presented both sides.
The Justice Game doesn't feel like an issue novel. We're never pounded over the head with its message. Instead, we're subtly led to our own conclusions as we examine the facts. Should a gun manufacturer be held responsible for a crime committed with one of their guns?
Before Singer finished writing The Justice Game a four minute interactive promotional video was created that presented the closing arguments of his fictional case. Then readers were asked to cast their vote on the verdict, and that would become the ending of the book. Their decision would be final. According to Randy the side that started out ahead stayed ahead.
Randy singer is one of the best Christian legal thriller writers out there in the purest sense. His complex plot spins and colorful, realistic characters combine to bring us a rich reading experience in The Justice Game.

The Secret Keeper: A Dick Hardesty Mystery ReviewThe Dorien Grey series of books are set in a slightly earlier time, in an anonymous large (due to the availability of public transport often referred to)city. The Private Eye genre is approached in a low key, calm manner, that makes the instances investigated realistic. Other gay detectives don't seem to worry about paying the bills, of if a client will pay, which is quite charming and a nice change. The detectives home life issues are also woven into the story in the secret keeper,which revolves around the antics of a spoilt,well to do family.
The whole series slowly builds the charachers and their close friends to a likeable crew you would wish to know. Dicks life develops and changes as the series progresses, and he matures from a bar hopper keen on one nite stands to someone who has to act as a 'grown up' at all times around the small child that becomes part of his family.
I have enjoyed these books, and The Secret Keeper: A Dick Hardesty Mysteryreally recommend the series as a whole, but I should advise you that 'sex, drugs and rock and roll' aspects of gay life are not covered here!!
The Secret Keeper: A Dick Hardesty Mystery Overview
PI Dick Hardesty listens with polite interest to his partner Jonathan's stories of his days working for 90-year-old multimillionaire Clarence Bement, helping the old man tend his garden. But when Bement is found dead, an apparent suicide, Jonathan is adamant that the old man would never have killed himself, a theory also held by Bement's grandson, Mel Fowler.

When Mel hires him to investigate, Dick learns Bement's lawyer also died mysteriously barely a week before Bement. He finds himself immersed in a world of greed and familial dysfunction, searching for a missing new will, and Jonathan becomes the target for someone who believes the old man entrusted him with a secret Jonathan is not aware he has.

Silent Prey ReviewDoctor Death is back. The serial killer Michael Bekker aka Doctor Death is back. After being arrested and beaten up by Lucas Davenport in a previous novel, Bekker escapes prison and sets himself up in New York. Bodies start turning up, and Davenport's ex-lover New York cop Lily Rothenburg calls to Davenport for help. He is not working with the Minneapolis Police anymore, but uses his time developing computer games. He welcomes the chance to work with Lily, and goes to New York. He soon finds out that Lily and her chief of Police O'Dell hsa a hidden agenda. Davenport is not called to New York only to solve the Bekker case, there is a "Robin Hood" on the loose in New York, killing "bad guys" and everything points to someone inside the police department. Davenport is asked to figure this mystery out, while he officially works solving the Bekker case.
The story is great, and the plot smart. Although you know who the killer is from page one, you keep guessing almost to the end, how does he do it, how does he manage to keep hiding? And who is the Robin Hood? Is it Lily herself, killing off bad guys from the streets of New York? There are many layers in this story, but it never becomes boring, and the characters are likeable or realistic. A good read in the Lucas Davenport series.Silent Prey Overview

Night of the Living Deb (Debutante Dropout Mysteries, No. 4) ReviewBrian Malone is one of the best young defense attorneys in the city. Brian is at "The Men's Club" (a bordello) treating his soon-to-be-married friend to a final wild night out. Brian hates the place and can hardly wait to leave. His interest perks up, though, when he spies a lady he knows and tries to catch up with her in the back of the club. That is the last anyone knows about Brian's where-abouts.
At the same time, Andrea "Andy" Kendricks is too busy to think about her boyfriend, Brian. Seems Brian's colleague and ex-girlfriend, Allie Price, has dragged Andy to a Chippendales' show. Andy is busy imagining what her mother, Cissy Blevins Kendricks, the Dallas society maven extraordinaire, would think should she find out where her daughter was. Shortly thereafter Andy finds out that Brian is missing. His friend claims that Brian ditched him and ran out of the club with one of the dancers. Allie may believe that, but Andy did not!
Andy must put aside her mean spirited thoughts about Allie and team up with "the Blond Menace" to figure out what is going on.
***** Author Susan McBride has become one of my favorite mystery writers ever! Her characters are always so well developed and totally believable. How could I not adore Andy, the main character? She is perky, sassy, and often hilarious! This mystery will keep you on the edge of your seat AND laughing uproariously. Stellar! *****
Reviewed by Detra Fitch of Huntress Reviews.Night of the Living Deb (Debutante Dropout Mysteries, No. 4) Overview
Renegade rich girl Andy Kendricks isn't the belle of any Dallas ball—and that's just the way the debutante dropout likes it! She's got a good life and a great man: her defense attorney boyfriend, Brian Malone. Brian's such a straight arrow that he had to be dragged kicking and screaming to a close friend's bachelor party at a sleazy local "gentleman's club."

So why is the groom-to-be saying that Brian left the bacchanal arm-in-arm with "the hottest body in the Lone Star State?" And what was that hot body doing stone-cold dead in the trunk of Brian's car? And where is Brian anyway? The cops are looking for Andy's allegedly unfaithful/possibly homicidal beau who hasn't been seen since the party. But Andy can't believe her upstanding lover is a murdering fool, and she's determined to prove it—though she might end up with a lot more broken than just her heart.

Vanished ReviewWhat the hell has Roger Heller gotten himself into? Vanished, the latest thriller from Joe Finder opens with an attack on Lauren and Roger Heller as they are leaving a Georgetown restaurant. Lauren wakes up more than 24 hours later, badly concussed. Of Roger, there is no sign. In the interim, their 14-year-old son, Gabe, has called in his uncle, Nick, for help. It is Nick Heller, brother of Roger, who Finder is setting up to be the hero of a new series of novels.
He's made a good choice. Born to a life of extreme wealth--all of which was lost in a scandal--Nick gave up the pursuit of cash and joined the armed forces. Now he works as a private investigator for a high-end DC firm. He's tough, charismatic, and extremely competent. Nick Heller strikes me as a character that could go over equally well with both men and women.
Nick and Roger haven't been close in years, but Nick can't leave his only brother's disappearance entirely in the hands of the DC police. He begins his own investigation, while at the same time continuing to look into loose threads from his last work case. The deeper he digs into each, the more convoluted these two cases become. And the more enemies he seems to acquire.
Occasionally I thought I knew where Finder was going with his story, and occasionally I was right. More often I was wrong. A couple times I was completely stunned by a plot development. Joe Finder is definitely more clever than I am. Nick Heller is also more clever than I am, and the man really knows how to throw a punch. Fight scenes in the book were unusually interesting and well-written. Additionally, take it from a native Washingtonian that the DC setting was used with specificity and authenticity. (And observations like, "Washington, D.C., is to lying what Hershey, Pennsylvania, is to chocolate" made me smile.) Plenty of details that ring true do a lot to sell the whole story.
These days, I've got a litmus test for thrillers: Can I read it in a single day? Because it has relatively little to do with how many pages or how fast I read. It's all about a novel holding my interest for hours on end. Vanished passed with flying colors. It's not Finder's strongest work, but it's a good start to a new series.Vanished Overview

Thripz ReviewTHRIPZ, a gripping thriller, pulls you in from the first sentence and never lets go. With deft precision, Robert Farley's novel about mutant killer thrips, genetically altered and resistant to pesticides, is so believable that you may never look at any bug the same way again.

At every turn, the unexpected will pull you in further, making it clear that people are often not what they seem and that nobody is above suspicion.

Nathan takes a dead specimen of one of the insects to the nearby college entomology department, where scientists deduce the creatures are thrips, common yard and garden pests. But these have been altered at the genetic level, giving them the ability to metabolize pesticides and to reproduce at increased rates. Within twenty-four hours, the island must unite to battle the voracious killers.Nathan follows the trail of death and destruction, finding more questions than answers. Can the mutant horde be eradicated without destroying the island? How can the technology be kept out of enemy hands? How many people will die before the terror ends--if it ends?

Prophecy ReviewI enjoyed reading this mystery thriller. This book puts Silverstein and Kipling in another suspensful situation in which Lopez and the CIA must get involved. The characters are strong, plot believable. Since I do all my reading at night before bed, I really appreciate short power packed chapters. I could hardly put the book down. Looking forward to another book from this author, with perhaps more emphasis on Kipling's character.Prophecy OverviewIn 1889, one of the worst environmental disasters to befall the United States occurred in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. More than 2,200 people died when a poorly maintained sporting dam gave way and destroyed the town.

Only minutes before the catastrophe, a nineteen-year-old girl enters a church in Johnstown, puts a letter into a bottle, and places it inside a safe. In the year 2009, that safe is unearthed. The letter reveals that the author knew of the impending flood. At the same time, laboratory experiments in Russia have far-reaching implications. In what could prove to be the scientific discovery of the ages, researchers uncover a rare genetic mutation that could scientifically explain the clairvoyant powers exhibited by prophets of old.

At the epicenter of the ensuing maelstrom, Dr. Victor Mark Silverstein, the Naval Research Laboratory's preeminent scientist, and his loyal assistant tangle with greedy U.S. senators, the CIA, and a Middle Eastern organization for verification and control of the "prophecy gene." The hunt begins for a present-day carrier who could confirm the gene's potential and prompt development of a synthetic replacement. At stake is theological chaos for the world's religions—and the power to control the planet.

anonymity are the theories of a crazy scientist, and the only people
who believe him are a disgruntled FBI computer geek and an
investigative reporter.
These two team with the scientist, and are soon targets of Screenshot
and wanted by the FBI as suspects themselves. The technology sounds
plausible, and the weapons are really weird, including a liquid taser
called the Pediphryer, used on, you guessed it, a pedophile. The story
moves rapidly, especially when the good guys become the targets,
running from the FBI while trying to avoid Screenshot's new weapon
aimed at them. And the ending is a table-turner.
I'd recommend it, especially if you like techno-thrillers.

Stone Cold: A Jesse Stone Novel ReviewRobert Parker has created an enigma with his character Jesse Stone. Just when you are sure that you know what Jesse will choose to do next, you are surprised.
In this novel, a pair of serial murderers is running rampant in Jesse Stone's small town. The motive is unfathomable, but then, they ARE serial killers. While Jesse and his police force track the killers, not only the why, but the who will be next question hangs densely in the air.
While the investigation proceeds, Jesse becomes more or less involved with a couple of different women, when his ex-wife enters the picture.
In the center of this novel is the third line of the story involving a young girl who claims to have been raped by some of the jocks at her school. The way Jesse handles this investigation is a wonderful new facet to this character.
The mix of emotions is nearly volatile, and as another murder occurs, you begin to wonder how will Robert PArker bring the story together. I thought the serial killers were a little vague, as characters, but still the surprising twists and turns of this author never fail to capture the readers full attention.Stone Cold: A Jesse Stone Novel Overview

The Teed-Off Ghost: A Hawaiian Golf Mystery ReviewLee Tyler is a veteran travel writer and current member of the Golf Writers Association of America. Other books include The Case Of The Missing Links.
Hawaii is full of mystery and romance, and when Harry "Win" Winslow and June Jacobs (who are self-described top golfing sleuths) are talked into watching over the new Mauna Makai golf course for a week, they have no idea that they will be dealing with more than just political mischief. Mauna Makai has an ancient wall, known as "papohaku" running through it. The wall is both the draw and the originator of many of the problems Martha Masters and Doug Banner have been having in getting the golf course online in time for a big celebrity wedding and the launching of the golf course:
"As they lurched along toward the first hole, Ted said, 'I live up-country, up there, about ten miles away.' He pointed to a mountain in the distance. 'See that rainbow? That's Waimea, where I live. Sometimes in the middle of the night, I hear this golf course calling to me. Like it's crying for help. So I get up at like two in the morning and get dressed and drive down here to check on things. My wife thinks I'm crazy. Doug here thinks I'm superstitious. Me, I'm just doing my job. And you know what? Every time I've come down here, there's been something screwy. Like majorly wrong.' He turned to Doug and said, 'Explain that with your mainland logic.'"
Tyler has combined the game of golf, ancient Hawaiian mythology, and a couple of scatterbrained sleuths to produce a whimsical tale about love, ghosts, and the history and culture of Hawaii. The Teed-Off Ghost is an excellent book to pull out on a cold winter day, as Tyler's passages about luaus can't help but warm the spirit. Tyler pokes fun at the obsession of golfers, while treating us to a warm Hawaiian experience complete with lots of terminology for the uninitiated. She adds island mystery, an entertaining and irascible ghost, and handsome natives who play havoc with the ladies' hearts. The Teed-Off Ghost is more about getting into the native spirits than it is about murder and mayhem, but it is a fun read nevertheless.
