The End of the Line
by Gray Williams 1 star The flow of the story lacks cohesion, making it a difficult book to read. I found the plot it hard to follow, and the characters lacked depth. With the characters becoming confusing from early in the book. When her criminal crew decide to hire an Abra to help with their heists, they don’t expect to raise a demon, or to quickly lose control of it. Now Coleman and her crew must travel across Siberia to a remote stone circle in order to kill this murderous creature, who has destroyed everything they hold dear. But as the demon’s power grows, a battle of wills commences. Coleman must fight to survive, facing demons both in chains and within herself.

By Mike Bond 3 stars Perhaps Mike Bond best title Fast flowing plot, with plenty of action The story line wanders at times, and a good edit would clean this up. Characters are as real as they get for this genre.

Joining allies from US and French intelligence, including a fearless and brilliant French agent, Anne Ronsard, with whom he soon falls in love, Pono faces impossible odds to stop Mustafa before he can destroy the most beautiful city on earth.

By J.B. Turner 4 stars Fast paced action thriller. With a fast paced story line, and action on every second page, the latest in the Jon Renshaw Series will not disappoint. The story has great tension between the lead characters, which adds colour to the story. The story flows well and fast, with action continually drawing the reader in. With his daughter lying in the hospital, struck down in a reckless hit-and-run, the only thing Jon Reznick can do is wait—and plot his revenge. Not satisfied with the slow-moving police investigation, he starts his own manhunt. He discovers that the car belongs to a high-ranking diplomat whose interests are closely tied to those of the United States government, and this man may not be what he appears. The FBI wants Reznick to back down, but the more information Jon digs up, the more questions he finds. Was it a simple accident, or is there more to it? How many young women’s lives has this man ruined? Lauren’s life hangs in the balance, and Jon must get answers, no matter the cost—to him or the government. #HardHit #NetGalley The Perfect Wife.
by JP Delaney 2 stars What started out as an interesting drama slowly fizzled, with two interesting twists right at the end. Abbie wakes in a hospital bed with no memory of how she got there. The man by her side explains that he's her husband. He's a titan of the tech world, the founder of one of Silicon Valley's most innovative startups. He tells Abbie she's a gifted artist, a doting mother to their young son, and the perfect wife. The further you read, the harder read it becomes. #ThePerfectWife #NetGalley Little Girls Sleeping (Detective Katie Scott Book 1)
by Jennifer Chase A gripping murder mystery detective story, featuring new detective Katie Scott. When Katie starts digging through some cold cases, she stumbles on some over looked clues that lead to the discovery of two bodies on young girls. An eight-year-old girl, Chelsea Compton, is missing in Pine Valley, California and for Detective Katie Scott it’s a cruel reminder of the friend who disappeared from summer camp twenty years ago.

Well written and authentic storyline. #LittleGirlsSleeping #NetGalley The Ex
By Nicola Moriarty 3 stars Advertised as a mystery, but fits better into the drama genre It starts well, but fails to build tension so that the middle of the book is slow and dry. Getting through the middle in hard work, and you have to question if the effort is worth it. A love story with a twist. His former partner wants him back, and will do anything to make it happen. #TheEx #NetGalley Two Victims
By Helen H. Durrant 4 stars An enthralling murder mystery that engages the reader throughout the entire story. Although this is the second in a series, it is easily read on its own, as I did. The characters are self-supporting from the first title. The story line moves along quickly and easily, without various side tracks that are often found in modern books. The book picks up the story of DCI Rachel King. A thirty-nine year-old divorced mother of two teenage daughters. She is good at her job, gets results but does make mistakes. One of them was getting involved with a budding villain in her teens. No one, family, friends or colleagues know anything about this. Detective Rachel King has two victims to deal with. The first woman was local nurse, Agnes Moore. One of the victim’s friends makes contact but then disappears. Does Rachel have a serial killer on her hands? And what was Agnes really helping local girls with?
