Driftwood Springs - Preview Demetrius Jackson
They see her as a monster. But she’s their only hope for seeing their kids again.
Charlotte, North Carolina. Agent Donatella Dabria’s assumed identity preserves her secrets but paints a target on her back. So when a billionaire’s son is abducted from inside a gated community, her too-real undercover role quickly gets her fingered for the crime. And she’s forced to abandon all pretense when the young witness she was supposed to protect is the next victim pulled into the shadows.
Hampered by an ineffectual police department, Donatella relentlessly pursues the truth in a neighborhood with more lies than residents. But when she barely survives a vicious attack at her home, she’s terrified she’ll be too late to prevent the kidnapped children from meeting a gruesome fate.

A Thin line David Boiani
What if a man lost his moral compass between right and wrong, good and evil, mental stability and insanity?
John Corbin has been investigating, catching, and convicting murderers, rapists, and pedophiles for twenty years as a Seattle detective. But lately, someone has been beating him to the punch and eliminating these vile criminals before he can apprehend them. John is learning that there is a thin line between innocent or guilty, good or evil, alive or dead.
By definition, a thin line is a very narrow division between two alternatives. Some being exact opposites, while others are separated by the narrowest of threads. This novel follows this definition to the letter. In life, many situations aren't just black or white. There is usually a modicum of grey to fill in the space. Who is ri

D for Daisy Nick Aaron
During World War II a Lancaster landed at its base in England after bombing Berlin, and a member of the crew was carried off dead. His young wife Daisy soon found out that he had been murdered. But she was only a woman, blonde and pretty, and blind since birth: so who was going to listen to her? In the mayhem of the bombing campaign, who even cared? She would have to find the murderer on her own.
I love the 1964 blind heroine crossing paths with a blind woman from ancient Rome, who has left a message 1900 years earlier. Two strong, brave women trying to do the right thing and stay alive, plus ancient Rome and political intrigues there, plus a mysterious message to decipher -- how could this fail as a recipe for fun, enthralling reading. Thank you, Nick Aaron, for writing The Desiderata Stone.
Nick Aaron's "D is for Daisy" starts with a compelling write-up--a blind woman is the only one on the trail of a murderer. A fascinating way to touch off a WWII thriller--a promising premise for a page-turner!
This sounds very intriguing!

Oboe Robert P. French
A ritualistic murder. An autistic child who saw more than he knows. Can one detective solve the riddle before a ruthless killer strikes again?
Detective Cal Rogan is down to his last shot. His supervising officer has him on probation and he’s determined to prove he’s cleaned up his act. His return to the department may be enough to drive him back to the lure of heroin when he sees the crime scene of a child’s grisly murder.
On the search for clues, he suspects the young victim’s death is only a small piece of a bloody conspiracy steeped in ritual. Before long, he finds himself swept into the strange world of a religious cult. Between the zealous believers and closely guarded secrets, his best chance at solving the case may come from a single word uttered by an autistic boy.

Between the zealous believers and closely guarded secrets, his best chance at solving the case may come from a single word uttered by an autistic boy.
From the book's opening chapter, you know this is a hard-boiled crime novel. Cal, known on the streets as Rocky, wakes up in a back alley. The description is vivid and confronting. He tries to break Roy from his drug-induced stupor as they have to hit the streets. Cal know that if anyone from his past recognizes him, he would meet a slow and painful death. One question hounds Cal, why did Tommy die of bad drugs when he was an alcoholic?
Excellent book with an interesting character and an interesting character. I enjoyed this refreshing approach to the genre.
I love a good detective story, especially when it involves a conspiracy. And when a case hangs on just one word, it has to be a page-turner.
This looks awesome. I love broken heroes. So much potential for awesome characterization.
This one has all the right stuff for a great story. Can't wait.

What Jake feels is resistance toward him, is really Lisa's distrust of men caused by a previous relationship centered on domestic violence. Lisa desperately searches for Ernest's killer while fighting her feelings for Jake and trying to mend the pain from her past.
Jake just might be the man of Lisa's dreams, but will she let shame and fear stand in the way of a new love?

Best Foot Forward Martin Svolgart
After a freak accident kills his wife and son, Pritchard slips into alcoholism and spends most of his time at a blue-collar bar nearby to avoid the dead and empty house.
A teenage girl sometimes comes into the bar to try to get her drunkard dad to come home, but it rarely works. One day, in his intoxicated state, Pritchard accidentally trips over her scooter, breaking it. He promises the distraught girl that he’ll pay for it, but she’s used to being lied to by drunk men. To follow through, he gives her his business card.
A few days later, she calls him out of the blue, afraid, begging for his help. Her dad has gotten into a card game with bad people, and the debt collectors aren’t stopping with him.

Looking forward to reading this book from Martin Svolgart.
Martin Svolgart's Best Foot Forward is a quick read with likeable characters. The hero, Pritchard, is sympathetic and I enjoyed watching him re-realize his purpose and stumble back into his "calling" in life as a protector. The supporting characters in Pritchard's hometown are a lot of fun, too, and come to feel like family. If you're looking for a quick, feel-good read and you enjoy watching the bad guys get their comeuppance, you'll enjoy this book.

Kindred Intentions Rita Carla Francesca Monticelli
24 hours. 2 people. 1 target.
It was 10 a.m. when undercover agent Amelia Jennings arrived at the law firm Goldberg & Associates for a job interview.

But her plan is doomed to fall apart before it even starts.
In less than twenty-four hours Amelia will be the prey in a man hunt and her destiny will become entwined with Mike Connor’s.
Their intentions, apparently similar, may prove to be opposite, but the affinity binding them goes beyond what they think they know about each other.
One day to survive. One day to let go of the past.

Nothing like a thriller when the plan falls apart and the heroes have to wing it! Makes it all the harder for the reader to guess what is going to happen...
Fast and enjoyable.

I felt like I was on Mars, the real Mars, and felt the desperation that isolated settlers will experience. Great read
Big screen material! This talented author brings the reader into a new world where adventure awaits at every turn. The descriptions are well though out, the characters pop off of the page. Don't miss this one!
Monticelli's original Italian has been translated to English for her Red Desert series, giving a charming flavor to the prose. Her characters are 3d, and her hard sci-fi setting is researched impeccably. Novella-length book one, "Point of no return," serves as an introduction, constructing the hooks that power future volumes and ramping up the tension and mystery.

The Only Witness James King
A quiet Sunday, a vicious assault. One man’s resurrection is another’s good luck.
When Alfie set out on his morning cycle ride, the last thing he expected was to be the only witness to attempted murder. The perpetrator of the crime was the only person who knew Alfie had seen him at the scene. And Alfie was easy to find. Scared out of his wits, he kept his head down and waited, as a weird sequence of events unfolded.
Suspenseful and gripping, the short story will give you a taste for the trilogy ALFIE GOES TO THAILAND. You’ll want to read all 3 novels.

Something tells me ALFIE GOES TO THAILAND will be a fast-paced, gripping read. This one sentence alone is pulling me to read this book: One man’s resurrection is another’s good luck.
Intriguing even before the beginning (adventurous and isolating title). Excellent sequencing format.

Parris writes compellingly and with such bold conviction. The plotline draws you in right away. The characters are interesting, in the way real people are when you sit and watch them. You can't stop thinking about them when you're not reading about them. Well worth the time.
I've recently read the first two chapters of Ms. Parris' spy thriller. This story wastes no time taking the reader right into a world of espionage. Rose Clarke wants back into "the life" and must convince Fairchild to meet with Walter, a mysterious man who can reinstate Rose's status in the spy world, a world she's addicted to. I'm looking forward to finding out more about the world Parris has built. I like her style and the pacing of this novel.

Follow Cal from the drug infested streets through the worlds of drug gangs and the super-rich to the stunning conclusion.
From the book's opening chapter, you know this is a hard-boiled crime novel. Cal, known on the streets as Rocky, wakes up in a back alley. The description is vivid and confronting. He tries to break Roy from his drug-induced stupor as they have to hit the streets. Cal know that if anyone from his past recognizes him, he would meet a slow and painful death. One question hounds Cal, why did Tommy die of bad drugs when he was an alcoholic?
Excellent book with an interesting character and an interesting character. I enjoyed this refreshing approach to the genre.
I love a good detective story, especially when it involves a conspiracy. And when a case hangs on just one word, it has to be a page-turner.
This looks awesome. I love broken heroes. So much potential for awesome characterization.
This one has all the right stuff for a great story. Can't wait.
