Historia
An invitation to Catalina Island from billionaire CEO Richard Kingsley. For his sons, Ted and John, and their wives, it’s an opportunity to curry favor, gain control of a real estate empire, and secure their family’s futures. For the controlling patriarch, succession is a contest. He and his newest wife won’t make it an easy win. Then Richard’s estranged live-wire daughter, Sibley, crashes the party. She’s the least of the night’s surprises. As the stakes for the inheritance of the Kingsley legacy are raised, the beautiful waters of the Pacific look more like a menacing illusion.

Not As Good As I Had Hoped
Revisado: 10-22-23
Had a lot of potential but, overall, I think it’s worth about 3-½ Stars. In the beginning it seemed to be building up to an exciting ending, but it didn’t happen. Characters were too predictable and there was almost no action of consequence. However, the audio performance was very good and easy to listen to.

Well-written and full of surprises. Highly recommended, especially the audiobook. This is the best I have read by Mark Edwards.

Historia
A man seeking to purchase an antique doll for his ailing grandchild opens up a Pandora's Box of hidden family secrets and intrigue that results in bitter hostility and murder. Josh and Emily, through brilliant deduction and imaginative enterprise, discover the clues that lead to the solution that lies at the heart of this mystery. As characters they are similar in conception to the witty bantering loving couple, Nick and Nora Charles of the famed Thin Man series created by the mystery writer Dashiell Hammett.

Another Adler Hit
Revisado: 10-20-16
As usual, Warren Adler has developed a unique plot and presented it with humor and by creating interesting characters for us to live with as the plot develops. As the book went on the reader can't help but to enjoy these characters and their personalities. As a collector of antiques, this story was particularly interesting to me.

Can't Wait for #3
Revisado: 10-26-15
Sarah Newby #2 was not only well-written but the plot, with it's twists and turns, was both clever and entertaining. Tim Vicary is fast becoming one of my favorite authors and I will be reading more of his books very soon.

Historia
Inside an old German U-Boat rusting on the bottom of the Baltic are millions in gold bars, stolen art, and a secret that could tear NATO apart. In this military political action thriller, the only one who knows the truth is Mike Randall, a battle-scarred American who survived four months in the frozen Hell of northern Germany at the end of the war. When he does speak up, he puts a target on his own forehead, one which the Russians, the West Germans, the U-boat's former owners, the Israeli Mossad, and even his own government quickly take aim at.

Another 5-Star Thriller from William F Brown
Revisado: 03-09-14
Would you consider the audio edition of Amongst My Enemies to be better than the print version?
I love audio books because the narrator is able to speak with the accents of the various characters and it makes them more alive than a print version. Because much of this story took place outside of the U. S., the accents were even more entertaining.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Amongst My Enemies?
There was no one moment. I enjoyed the story as a whole.
What does Lee Alan bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Once again, I enjoyed the various accents he used for the characters.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Imaginative and fast-paced plot will entertain throughout
Any additional comments?
Mr. Brown, please write another book. I have read all five and I want more!

Joseph Finder Classic
Revisado: 02-12-14
Would you listen to Extraordinary Powers again? Why?
I enjoy all of Joseph Finder's novels, primarily because his stories are all imaginative and fun to read.
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
I was always on the edge of my seat because the plot would take unexpected turns and it was fun to guess what would happen next.
What does Christopher Burns bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I loved the various accents he would use - something you could never get by simply reading the book.
