Historia
For millennia the location of the Nile River’s headwaters was shrouded in mystery. In the 19th century, there was a frenzy of interest in ancient Egypt. At the same time, European powers sent off waves of explorations intended to map the unknown corners of the globe—and extend their colonial empires.

Details and hardships
Revisado: 06-20-24
Outstanding Millard does a masterful job of detailing interesting points that grabs the reader and moves the narrative along. The hardships and challenges facing the explorers are almost overwhelming. The underlying push for colonialism by the English almost equals the challenges in Africa today. Great read and book to listen to, but with out the book u miss how Millard uses her research and technique of quotable quotes to build the story. A person needs both.

Welcome back Gray Man
Revisado: 05-02-24
I love this new book. And look forward to the new one. Outstanding development of a serious issue facing all nations (ai)) plus a new look at the use of drones. Well read and articulated. Congratulations on the return of the Gray Man. Jeff Lantz

I loved the narrator, the historical discussions, the subject and Boris Johnson’s writing skills. bJ was such a fan of Churchill, we have to ask how he could have screwed up his own PM so badly. Jeff Lantz

Historia
Alex Sand was spending the evening at home playing basketball with his two young sons when all three were shot in cold blood. A wealthy federal judge, there’s no short list of people who could have a vendetta against Sands, but the gruesome murders, especially that of his children, turn their St. Paul community on its head. Sand was on the verge of a major donation to a local housing charity, Heart/Twin Cities, and with the money in limbo, eyes suddenly turn to his grieving widow, Margaret Cooper, to see what she might do with the money.

Welcome back Letty
Revisado: 12-03-23
Not quite as intense as the first story with Letty, but well done. Some parts were too cutesy, but the reader was great (much better than Judgment Prey) Letty is almost as tough as her dad, and has a group of sidekicks as unique, as diverse and as talented as Daverport’s associates. Good job John. Thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to the next. Jeff Lantz

Historia
So begins a press release from a mysterious group known only as “The Five,” shortly after a vicious predator is murdered in San Francisco. The Five is made up of vigilante killers who are very bored…and very rich. They target the worst of society—rapists, murderers, and thieves—and then use their unlimited resources to offset the damage done by those who they’ve killed, donating untraceable Bitcoin to charities and victims via the dark net. The Five soon become popular figures in the media …though their motives may not be entirely pure.

A little gun with bump stock makes a killer
Revisado: 10-02-23
Well then and delivered. RF outstanding. Great message re bump stocks but nothing will happen . Shame! True gun lovers and users and NEA turn a blind eye to problem. Main message is in final 2 of 5s comments.

Historia
An off-duty Coast Guardsman is fishing with his family when he calls in some suspicious behavior from a nearby boat. It's a snazzy craft, slick and outfitted with extra horsepower, and is zipping along until it slows to pick up a surfaced diver...a diver who was apparently alone, without his own boat, in the middle of the ocean. None of it makes sense unless there's something hinky going on, and his hunch is proved right when all three Guardsmen who come out to investigate are shot and killed.

Historia
The daughter of a US Senator is monitoring her social media presence when she finds a picture of herself on a strange blog. And there are other pictures...of the children of other influential Washington politicians, walking or standing outside their schools, each identified by name. Surrounding the photos are texts of vicious political rants from a motley variety of radical groups. It's obviously alarming - is there an unstable extremist tracking the loved ones of powerful politicians with deadly intent? But when the FBI is called in, there isn't much the feds can do.

Too far
Revisado: 08-26-23
Still one-off my favorite authors and Ferrone is always outstanding, but as an ex prosecutor, AUSA, and defense lawyer I thought our hero went too far. Great discussions about RW groups and differences among them, but end result was a liitle too far. Surprised wife was so agreeable. Lettie would have been agreeable, but wife no so much. Still book was good and pointed out problems w with guns, Washington go alongside Dems and Reps.

Historia
Clayton Deese looks like a small-time criminal, muscle for hire when his loan shark boss needs to teach someone a lesson. Now, seven months after a job that went south and landed him in jail, Deese has skipped out on bail, and the US Marshals come looking for him. They don't much care about a low-level guy - it's his boss they want - but Deese might be their best chance to bring down the whole operation. Then, they step onto a dirt trail behind Deese's rural Louisiana cabin and find a jungle full of graves.

Historia
Lucas Davenport had crossed paths with her before. A rich psychopath, Taryn Grant had run successfully for the US Senate, where Lucas had predicted she'd fit right in. He was also convinced that she'd been responsible for three murders, though he'd never been able to prove it. Once a psychopath had gotten that kind of rush, though, he or she often needed another fix, so he figured he might be seeing her again. He was right.

Lucas Davenport's first case as a US marshal sends him into uncharted territory in the thrilling new novel in the number one New York Times best-selling series. Thanks to some very influential people whose lives he saved, Lucas is no longer working for the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension but for the US Marshals Service, and with unusual scope. He gets to pick his own cases, whatever they are, wherever they lead him.

Interesting plot and developing new associates. Always enjoy how Lucas expands his techniques of investigation through the use of his past experiences. Miss some interplay with old associates and family but JS brings things together at the end. Ferrone is still terrific.
