So full of excellent detail and enthralling adventure! There are only a handful of authors alive today with McDougall's ability to weave so many stories and concepts together into such an exciting narrative. For those of you looking for the same standard of writing he provided with his first bestseller, you will not be disappointed.

If you like conspiracy thrillers, or anything like National Treasure or Indiana Jones type books and/or movies, you will love the Rossler Foundation Mysteries!!!  Not only does this grab you with the action (like a Tom Clancy or Michael Crichton novel) but it engages the curiosity part of your brain and you want more, more, more!  :)  I couldn't put my Kindle down while reading this first book, and all the while I hoped that there were more after this one!  (Thank God there are 3 more books in the series!)

On an even better note, unlike a lot of the e-books these days, there were no outstanding typos, spelling or grammatical errors!  A HUGE PLUS when reading e-books these days!

If you have an open mind and want to be thoroughly thrilled, buy this series, sit back and enjoy!

"Latest and Greatest" is not a cliche when it refers to Steven Becker's new book....instead it's the perfect description!
I received an advance copy of Wood's Revenge in exchange for an honest review. As a fan of Mr. Becker's work, especially this series of Mac Travis stories, I jump at any opportunity to explore Mac's ongoing adventures. This time Mac, Mel and Trufante tangle with the scourge of Florida, "Big Sugar". For those of us in Florida, the environment, crooked politics and the unchecked power of Big Sugar are daily issues.
Mr. Becker gets it. Following Mac et al across the Everglades made for absolutely enthralling reading. Steve Becker's writing is insightful, provocative and highly entertaining. From fish kills to crooks to corruption, he nails it.
Whether this is your first or latest Steve Becker book, you'll be glad you read it. Don't miss the Editor's Note at the end of the book, and don't miss Mac Travis' next adventure!

What a fun ride!  I could not put this thought provoking book down!  The plot moves along quickly leading the readers on a journey they will not want to end!  The story is a skillfully written thriller full of twists and turns.  The subject is very a propos with the melting in Antartica.  Global warming Is definitely a possibility.

Mr. Rosser is a brilliant author and a superb storyteller!  in his standout offering, he gives us a taut action packed thriller!
This week end, my to-do list suffered greatly,  I could not put this book down!  I will definitely buy everything this author publishes and I recommend this story to anyone enjoying thrillers  It is brilliant!

Thank you Sandrine for another great story.  Dirty Ross is about Cole and Ross  who being edging around each other since the moment they saw one another. So it was no surprise that when they finally came together they heat up my kindle page.  Both men came with baggage and secret from their past that could either bring them together or tear them apart. Come along for the ride and  watch these two men fall in love and deal with pain, jealousy and  danger in a way that will make you laugh, then cry, then laugh again to the very end . This was a dirty ride that brought back all of our Assassins-shifters and friends in a way that only Sandrine can, well done.  I really recommend this book and the rest of the books in the series.

I am an avid reader and happened to come across this title while I was searching for my next book - I am so glad I found it! This was one of the best novels I've read in a long time, McKibben is a terrific writer and she kept me spellbound the whole time. I nearly read this whole novel in one sitting! I'm not a huge hockey fan but the way that she writes about the sport makes is accessible and exciting - it makes me want to go buy tickets to the next pro hockey game. I loved the characters, and even the "bad" guys are complex and believable.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for an entertaining and enjoyable read. I am looking forward to reading McKibben's other novel, The Chaos Protocol, as soon as I can!

Ed McBain is BACK.  I've always enjoyed Ed McBain's 87th precinct novels and Matthew Hope novels.  This 51st entry is among his best.  In the beginning he lets us know the murder victim before she is murdered, and man is she murdered.  I was surprised when Carella and Meyer are investigating a homicide at the zoo and the vic turns out to be the female pilot.  I just wasn't expecting it.  The subplot regarding the terrorist activity is very informative when McBain gives us a brief history on when and how the terrorist regime developed in 1954 and culminated in 1964 in Algiers.
Also Carella is on the verge of severe depression over the death of his father and his mother and sister are embracing life at its fullest.  And the details McBain shares about how Fat Ollie Weeks judges other fat people harshly and not himself just had me rolling.  I hope Ed McBain can keep them coming.  Just to name a couple of other great ones I thoroughly enjoyed Gladly the Cross-Eyed Bear, Nocturne, Criminal Conversation and Privileged Conversation.  Thanks for keeping me so up date.

I started this series with the first book, The Cutting.  I really enjoyed it.  So, naturally, it is to be expected that I enjoy this too.  Between James Hayman and Joe Conlan, I may turn in to a huge fan of serial killer themed thrillers!  These books keep me on the edge of my seat!  It's like reading from a script of Criminal Minds.

First, you don't necessarily need to read the first book to read this one.  They are two separate stories.  The only reason I would suggest reading the first one is to get to know McCabe and crew first.  You don't get a whole lot of character development in this one, like you do in the first one.

This book dives right into the new case.  There is no build up.  The starts right off and continues through the book.  It's more down and dirty than the first book.  There's more detail in the action.  More mental images that will keep you grimacing and wanting more!

If you are a thriller fan or looking for a little change, James Hayman is the man for you!  He will not disappoint in either area!

"Completely satiated and looking forward to the next book!"  Each book has been better than the last!  I originally bought the 1st one for my nephew and am now pleasantly held captive.  So much so, I bought my own Rachel Riley instead of sharing!  :)  I truly hope this series is picked up -- I would love to see it on the big screen like Harry Potter.  MAC is easily as talented as J.K. Rowling & I hope the work is recognized in a way that is worthy of it.  In the meantime, truly worth not only every moment, but multiple reads!!!

Having now read and enjoyed her first two books, LJ Ross is quickly becoming one of my favourite authors. Thanks to her impeccable writing and clever plots, I've come to love the DCI Ryan series. Once again, reading Sycamore Gap, I found myself on my toes from start to finish. How did I not discover this author before?

The events in Sycamore Gap take place a few months after those of 'Holy Island'. This murder mystery can be read as a standalone but in the story we have some character development and references to the case in Holy Island, so I would suggest readers to read the books in the correct order.

I love this author's way of setting her crime stories in (and link them to) historical locations - places that exude an almost mystic aura. You know that horrible deeds have been carried out in these places and you can almost feel evil lurking there. In Holy Island events took place on the small island of Lindisfarne with its ancient derelict priory. In this book we have the famous Hadrian Wall in the scene. And it's exactly here where the story starts to unfold with the accidental discovery of a skeleton entombed inside the wall.

"...Ryan's unique skill for putting himself into the mind of a killer..."

From the prologue, we know who the dead person is: a young girl named Amy. From the remains it's evident that the girl has been murdered and so Ryan and his team lose no time and start their investigation. When did this girl die? Who killed her? And why? But Amy won't be the only victim. However with a tangled web of evil both inside and outside the police department, this won't be an easy case for Ryan to crack. And an unforgiving enemy is after him and everything he holds dear and has vowed to destroy him. Who will get the upper hand by the end? Well...

In this book the author weaves yet another intricate plot around strong, believable characters, both likeable and hateful. The dialogue is so realistic. I particularly liked Phillips and MacKenzie - they are so funny but at the same time brilliant cops who add that sparkle to the story.

The author's descriptions are so vivid that I felt as if I was there in a dark street or in the incident room following the case. In one particular scene I realised that I was clutching my shirt's collar and holding my breath. I wanted to read fast and turn the pages to see what will happen next but at the same time I felt anxious and fearful because I didn't want to know that what I thought was going to happen would actually take place.

With suspense throughout, but also with a dash of humour and romance thrown in from time to time, this is an engaging, gripping book. As in the previous one, the ending is not short of revelations and surprises. Now I can't wait to lay my hands on Heavenfield, the third book in the series to be published soon.

With thanks to the author for a review copy of this book.

Being a fan of Author McDermott's "Dugan" books, I began reading Under a Tell-Tale Sky (an advanced reader copy) with a bias.  How could McDermott abandon my beloved Dugan and gang in favor of any other troup?  How?

As it turns out, very well indeed.

Building a belivable reality in a world post electrical power (solar flares have fried all the transformers) and keeping the reader engaged is no small task, particularly with a picky reader such as I.  Under a Tell-Tale Sky won me over and then slapped my skeptical butt with its cast of new characters so interesting and varied I read it in one sitting (well one and a nap).  I won't spoil anything but to say this was a great read and that I look forward to the continuing saga.  AND to the next Dugan.

Grab this one now.  You will not regret it.

The Poldark series is thoroughly enjoyable.  It is the story of family, war, peace, secrets, old and new loves. Couldn't stop reading...  Ross and Demelza's story is truly one for the ages!

I have been a fan of Mr. Rutherfurd's since I purchased a paperback of RUSSKA years ago.  I have every one of his books and he never fails to entertain me.  His latest is a long awaited success of Irish history.  As usual, his research is impeccable and his characters are so believable.  I felt I was there myself.  One thing though, the book only goes up to the reign of Henry the VIII--is there more to come?  And of course there is Scotland and Wales to investigate.  You will not be able to put this one down!

Dirty Ross did not disappoint!  From agreeing when he is being likened to a starving hooker to finding he is a closet Trekkie, we learned so much about Cole. Went from rooting for him to wanting to throw a couple b*tchslaps his way to back to rooting for him. Love when we get new characters so we can try to figure who goes with the guys we already know and love.  Thanks again for another satisfying chapter in the Skull Blaster story.
