Review 238: First Feature by Jason Blacker

Review 238: First Feature by Jason Blacker

By Daniel Pearson on September 27, 2011

Whisky connoisseur, art zealot and to top it all off, a private eye with enough quips and one liners to fuel the next twenty James Bond film scripts. Anthony Carrick is an ex- LAPD cop turned private eye and artist. His wife has left and the kid with her, now only his faithful feline companion around to hear his musings some would say Carrick has become a bitter man. Not far from the truth, Carrick is quite the cynical character but it doesn’t stop him exuding a sort of reluctant charm and wit.

Review 237: False Witness by Randy Singer

Review 237: False Witness by Randy Singer

By Dan Marvin on September 23, 2011

Here is the recipe for False Witness: Add two parts action novel to one part John Grisham courtroom drama, mix in vicious Chinese gangsters and deceptive government agencies, sprinkle liberally with Christianity and stir until well mixed. What you end up with is a hot mess, but not in a bad way.

Review 105: The Demon Hunters by Linda Welch

Review 105: The Demon Hunters by Linda Welch

By LK Gardner-Griffie on August 21, 2009

We first met Tiff Banks in review 70 of Along Came a Demon. During the course of the first book, Tiff Banks is established as a person with the ability to talk with ghosts, who are referred to as shades. Tiff used her gift to assist the Clarion Police Department with murder investigations.
