Malicious Intent A Sam Parker Mystery Maria Pease
In this fast-paced murder mystery, Samantha Parker, an amateur sleuth with a nose for trouble, accepts a case involving a handsome stranger that is willing to pay her twenty-five thousand dollars to find out who’s following him. It seemed easy enough, but when he suddenly disappears, Sam is determined to find out what happened to him. She just never imagined it would lead her to the mob, murder, and into the arms of the crime boss himself.
“As a fan of Kinsey Millhone, Stephanie Plum and V.I. Warshawski, I welcome Sam Parker to the mix of my favorite female “snoops.” Like her predecessors, Sam Parker’s personality, a creation of the Temecula Valley’s own Maria Pease, will soon rise to be one of your favorites, too!”

Wow, the Last Gasp by Robert Parker left me wanting more. This novel has great characters, good pacing and a super plot. I hope to see
more by this author!
The prologue to Last Gasp by Robert F Barker is an interplay between routine surveillance and the stress of operations not going to plan. The prologue also sets-off the tone of the novel and introduces Barker as a skilled writer. The characters remain nameless. The reader is an observer just as the police squad is voyeurs to a liaison between a client and a dominatrix. When things go un-expected, pressure mounts. The book launches finding DCI Carver, the somewhat preoccupied detective, at the gates of a mansion in what promises to be a most intriguing read.

An intriguing cover, an excellent description and opening chapters hook you in for a bare-knuckled adventure that you leaves you wondering about the hidden world that exists right underneath our noses. Don't miss out!
This one has my interest. Looking forward to it.
This story line sounds so inventive and promising. Can't wait for the giveaway to begin!
The real world is full of synchronicity, since it's basically all one "thing." Or all one action. So, for fiction to remind us of that fact is a welcome affirmation of how everything is kind of a miracle, never something to take for granted as being some ol' mundane life. Nope. Not when books like this are here for us to read.

I'm glad this is just a preview because the whole book might just cause a psychotic break. I mean that as a compliment, I think...
Love the psychological angle! Can't wait to read.
