Reviewed by Anne Boiling for Readers' Favorite

Winston Simon was a Private Detective until his office was blown up by a major drug cartel. He was ready to get back into the swing of things. Basking in the sun on the beach with his fiancé was fun, but he was bored. He had feeling of dread. Call it a sixth sense but he could feel something bad was about to take place. His friend Thomas James called asking for help. TJ’s daughter had been arrested for murder. It was time to get back to work. Simon’s investigating uncovers more than he bargained for.

This is a fast paced story that will keep the reader turning pages to find out what is going to happen next. Someone wants Simon dead. From drug dealers to street racers, spies and terrorist, Simon is caught up in chaos. The reader follows Simon from Las Vegas to California onward to Alaska and back with some heart pounding moments. The plot kept me on the edge of my seat. The author includes twists and turns to keep the reader eagerly turning pages. This is an excellent mystery that will please the most discriminating mystery fan.
