The action never stops when the stars of R.H. Johnson's two thriller series team up in this riveting crossover novel. Detective Pete Nazareth and black-ops legend Travis Delta declare war on a Russian mobster who operates from a fortified island in the Florida Keys. While things are heating up in the Sunshine State, Tara Gimble, Nazareth’s wife and former NYPD partner, faces off with a murderer in Florence, Italy. This is the thirteenth novel in the Detective Pete Nazareth series.
Author Russ Johnson has written twenty-nine novels in a variety of genres. The books are works of fiction, but they have a ring of authenticity derived in part from his military, private-sector, and consulting experiences. He lives in Kennebunk, Maine, and Princeton Junction, New Jersey. You can learn more about Russ's upcoming books at www.authorrhjohnson.com.
This is the 13th and, hopefully, not the last of the Detective Pete Nazareth books. But, it's much different than all of the others since it brings the author's other hero, Travis Delta, into the story. The excitement of Pete, his wife Tara and Travis and his wife, Liv, working together doesn't disappoint. From the opening few pages I was interested in what was going on and I was hooked. R.H. Johnson keeps the suspense alive right up to the final chapter.
I became a fan of the Detective Pete Nazareth books after reading the first one, and highly recommend reading all of the books.
Mixing Pete and Tara with Travis and Olivia produces a heady brew indeed. Something like a nitroglycerin cocktail is given to several bad guys and girls. By the time the drink is consumed, the world is rid of some quite undesirable inhabitants, some of them in very creative ways. Author Johnson continues his run of very readable books featuring his intrepid fighters of evil. A very enjoyable read and highly recommended.
This is another of the author’s well researched exciting tales. From the waters off the south Florida coast to the streets of Florence and the wilds of Alaska you can imagine yourself being there. I was wondering if the author’s two main protagonists would ever meet up in a reasonable fashion and that question has been answered.
