Raymond Benson recommends
Backstory (2022)
William L Myers Jr
"[In Backstory, ] Myers has deftly composed a twisty puzzle of a thriller that will keep you intrigued until its revelatory conclusion."
Inhuman Trafficking (2021)
(Nick 'Deke' Deketomis, book 4)
Mike Papantonio and Alan Russell
"As someone who has previously tackled the subject matter, I can say that Inhuman Trafficking is on the nose with its realism and at times disturbing depiction of a serious problem in the USA and other countries. Authors Papantonio and Russell deliver a fast-paced legal thriller with hard-hitting conflict--sometimes 'Bondian' action!--that introduces an engaging team of protagonists and an equally despicable group of baddies."
Animal (2021)
Munish K Batra and Keith R A DeCandido
"Animal is a serial killer thriller with a twistthe villain is actually doing something many animal rights activists might applaud. This provides the tale with a unique, ironic, and contradictory sensibility that is quite compelling. A cinematic, fast-paced ride!"
